    For me, an inch is 10 lbs. At a pound a week, that's 10 weeks. It might be less for you since you're smaller.

    Source(s): I calculated the formula by measuring my weight loss.

    Well I'd say close to 6 weeks if you keep up the rate of losing a pound a week. Ignore the post on colon cleanse, just a bot advertising their product.
