Depressed

Hey Junebugs... I must say that I am really disappointed in myself. I was hoping to lose 100 lbs. by my one year anniversary but "sigh" I am only at 90 and holding fast. I am going to try a protein plateau buster but that will not effect my anniversary as it is coming in two days. I know 90 lbs is still an accomplishment but it is not what my goal was. I get depressed when everyone says they lost 150 or so pounds! I know I started out on the light side of MO but still...Anyway...happy anniversary to all who made your goal!! Keep up the hard work!

Kelly...Kelly...Kelly..... Do NOT be depressed!! You have done just awesome!!!!!!!! I started out at 245, just like you and I've only lost 85, and I feel like I am a complete success!! We have done awesome!! To loose 85 to 90% of your excess weight in one year, is outstanding!!! My doctor says I'm a complete success also and that I am not done losing yet. He feels that I will make it to goal in about 18 months. You probably will too. Just keep on, keeping on and we will do it!!!! I am at 160 and have been there for a couple of months. I'm only losing 2-3 lbs a month now, but it is still slowly coming off. It will for you too! Keep your chin up! Lyn 245/160/145

what protein plateau buster are you referring to? I can't budge from 90 lbs. either. Any suggestions would be awesome!! Thanks! [email protected]

Kelly, I started at 305 - got down to 200 and that was it - for months. I hit my one year anniversary (6/28/05) and was still at 200. I haven't been on the scale since then - until last night (8/7/05) - and just like that - I'm at 175.5 lbs!!! Be patient - it will come. Heather
