As for your question... you're not going to have a choice, it's going to slow down. Drastic and fast weight loss at first is usually water weight, not fat. There's probably a plethora of details you could give and everybody else could analyze, but at those kind of calories, you're just not going to be able to continue to lose at that rate indefinitely.
I'm not going to say you're not doing anything unhealthy, simply because you have supplied so little detail, basically only saying you eat around 2,000 calories a day and run twice a day. There's a whole bunch of blanks to be filled in there, but I'll leave the detailed analysis to some of the other folks.
But... the sheer fact that you dropped a fairly significant amount of weight like that right at first isn't unhealthy in itself, as it's pretty common and mostly water weight. Just don't expect that to keep happening. Once the water weight falls off, you need to be shooting for 1-2 pounds per week, not 5 or more.
