My sister is doing far better than I, I am still lingering 200 but her scale
this week was 317.4....subtract that from 358= and awesome acheivement she
thought she would never reach again without drastic surgery.

I'm so happy for her! It's such a REVELATION to find that you can actually DO
something about your weight that is NOT drastic or even particularly DIFFICULT!

YEEEAAA, Mary! Your sister is doing fantastically, but you're no slouch!
Just remember that the more you have to lose, the slower it will come off.

Keep it up!

I think you have that backwards, the less you have to lose the slower it
comes off.

Well congrats to your sister!

Don't forget... most of us typically lose only 1 to 2 pounds per week after
the initial speedy lost. My first 3 months I lost quickly (I felt so
proud/lucky as I passed other poster's weights on here at that time) but
things have been slow since. Actually, I'm feeling great this week because
after being stuck around 208 for over a month, I'm down to 205! I'm very
very much wanting to be under 200 soon. It seems like when I have more
success with weight loss is when I eat more veggies. I need to stop being
so lazy about shopping and go out more often so that I can restock the
veggies and I'm not out so much. 🙂

Oh! And don't forget to take measurements. There have been many weeks when
I have no weight loss but I lose inches, so I know I'm on the right track.
