Probably not too realistic, Angelic Starlight. You're better off thinking of losing one-half kilo to one kilo a week. There will be some weeks when you lose more, of course, and there will be some that you don't lose as much, but your overall average should be about 0.75 kilo per week, or 25 kilos or so per year. That's a healthy rate of loss.
Also keep in mind that the less you have to lose, the more slowly you'll lose. If you've got to lose 5 kilos and your best friend needs to lose 25 kilos, she'll probably be dropping two to three kilos a week at first, while you'll only drop a half-kilo to one kilo a week. As her weight approaches yours, her loss will slow down. Mind you, you'll probably still reach your goal before she reaches hers, but at least at first, her progress will be faster.
My Weight Watchers meeting leader said that in high school she was at her ideal weight, but she gained two pounds a year until she was 48. That's sixty pounds of weight gain over thirty years. When she thought about that, losing one pound a week and reaching her weight goal in only a year and a half didn't seem nearly so slow. In fact, it sounded downright speedy.
