1-2 lbs per week loss...thoughts and such

I know...the schpeal about 1-2lbs loss per week is expected with the band and is healthiest.

However, when I exercise and eat right, I lose 3+ pounds per week. Now I KNOW once I lose a significant amount of weight and get less and less obese, I should expect the 1-2lbs per week. But shouldn't a morbidly obese person (as I was at the start) expect to lose more than 1-2lbs per week, when eating right and exercising? Is it unhealthy for me to lose 3+ per week @ 237 pounds even though I'm eating enough, eating healthy and exercising? I just don't think it is unhealthy. If I were to still lose this quickly after I reach onderland, I could see reason for concern, but now?

Thoughts?
