Losing 10lbs in 1.5 weeks normal?

Hello all! I’m a 25y/o 5’2” female who’s starting weight was 187 with a current weight of 177. The only thing is I gained that weight in a month, yet have lost it in a fairly short span of time.

For exercise I’ve been walking with the occasional 10 minute jog, but nothing more than I would normally do when I was the previous weight. The biggest change has been my eating habits this past week, which have contained healthy foods such as oatmeal, 2% milk, egg whites, spinach, and some fruits. I have had a little bit of fast food when my grandmother offered, but I didn’t go overboard on it.

I’m working hard on making this a sustainable change due to risk of heart disease and diabetes in my family, but I’m worried the positive changes I’m making are causing weight loss too fast. My appetite hasn’t been the best lately either, so I’m trying my hardest to eat full portions of meals (and succeeding for the most part).

Another thing I’m worried about is lose skin, as I eventually want to make it into the 140s (I’ve not been 140 for about 10 years).

I’m new to all of this as this is the first time I’m actually motivated to lose for good and keep it off. I’m sorry if this is kind of a dumb question, but I just have tremendous amounts of unnecessary anxiety (thank you, anxiety disorder).
