The slowdown?

I’ve been simultaneously thrilled and terrified by how fast the weight is dropping off of me with very little effort. I’m happy, of course, to have such a nice kick-start to what is traditionally supposed to be a lengthy and difficult process. I’m worried, though, because I know the bubble will burst eventually and then I’ll start clapping hands and jumping up and down about losses of 0.1 pounds or less.
Anyway, maybe that’s part of what happened this week. I lost 2.6 pounds which is my second-smallest loss (the smallest being 0.2 when I had my period, but that corrected itself with a 9+ loss the next week). I’ve been averaging 4-6 pounds per week so maybe I’m finally experiencing the slowdown.
Geez. This is only week 7, and the first two weeks don’t even count since I was spitefully not even trying! Still, I’m 19.1% of the way to my goal which just seems impossible.
