I understand totally the slowly sloth post that went out recently on this blog. My weight is coming off, but it is not in big chunks. This week, I lost 1.2 pounds.
But, i still consider this a victory. Some is better than none and definitely better than a gain. I switched meeting locations and had to weigh midday AND it was a short week because it was on Thursday instead of Saturday. So, I expected a gain or to stay the same this week. I can’t complain with a pound lost.
I am now starting week six with the Weight Watchers materials and I have lost 6.2 pounds. A pound a week…at this rate, it will take me a long time to get to my goal, but at least I’m making progress, inch by inch, little by little.
Weight loss to date: 6.2 pounds; Pounds 2 Go: 23.8

Slow and steady really is best. If you drop too much too fast, it doesn’t work out nearly as well.

Congrats, CMC! That’s a sensible rate at which to lose. :dance:

No matter how long it takes to reach your goal, you’ll be glad when you get there! Plus, you’ll just be a little happier about it each week

You are doing awesome, CMC! I will tell you what I said to Clara (slowly…sloth)–I haven’t lost anything, yet. So feel better about what you have lost! :clapping:

You are doing great. It seems like the closer you get to your goal the slower it goes, but you are making good progress. :clapping:
