GOD BLESS ALL. I'M MISSING ALOT OF OUR AMOS FAMILY HERE, WHERE ARE YOU HIDING?

30 lbs is nothing to be ashamed of! It is the direction, not the speed that counts. Keep doing the right things and the weight will keep dropping off. Joy -38

Yvette! So sorry you arent feeling so great. Dont worry like Joy said as long as you are loosing you are winning!!! And those pounds are gone forever!! What I did (being on 18 day plateau) was upped my protein with my protein ice drinks 40 grams a bottle and it curbed my appetite and was able to get in 80 grams a day and my weight started to come off. Dont despair our bodies are going through major changes and everyone is different. the first 20 pounds I lost were in the very first week! made me sick and put me back in the hospital. since then i lost like 28 pounds in 2 months so it does come off slower and may be a little better for some of us since loosing tooooo fast made me sick! It will happen for you ! Chin up!! (((hugs))) Elizabeth M -48lbs

when was the last time you lost 30 pounds in two months? for me, the answer would be never! I had surgery at the end of the same week you did and I have lost 41 BUT (and that a big 'butt') I started out at over 400 pounds. Being smaller you will lose faster and let face it, honey, after 30 our metabolism slows down and even more after 40. So I think we're doing great! Down, down, down instead of continuing to go up.

Yvette - I know how you feel about slow weight loss. I had 30 more to lose than you and I've lost 37 lbs which is still quite slow. Just hang in there....we'll get there eventually! Dina
