Paul,
Congrats on the first steps to your new body and healthy lifestyle.
I don't know what your diet is but be very careful. 3.4lbs in 2 days is likely water loss with some fat loss given that you are working out. I always tell people that they should shoot for 2 pounds of fat loss per week. This is a safe and realistic way to lose weight and keep it off. Plus, I tell people to weigh themselves weekly and not daily. If you gain 1 pound tomorrow, you might get demoralized. 1-3 pounds of weight fluctuation per day is not uncommon. So a weekly weigh in reduces the fluctuations some and over the long haul, you'll see progress.
I'm sure I'm not the only one on here with experience, but I've been into health and fitness for a long time so feel free to ask me any questions you have.
All the best!
