Here's the big picture -- 70 lbs in 4 months is HUGE, and you are inching toward the right direction. Plateaus are totally normal and expected. If you look at it in terms of giving your body a chance to adjust, then it just makes sense -- all the while YOU doing everything you can.
Congratulations!! Great job!

Thanks Claire in the beginning I felt like I was in a race, always comparing myself to others weight loss. I have come to realize that this is my life and it should not be compared to others. An average of 2 -3lbs a week is something that I can be proud of. Slow and steady wins the race, right?

Kim... you're only a month ahead of me, and nearly double my weight loss... When I compare myself to YOU, I'm frustrated!
You're right tho... this journey is unique to each of us... the pace is our own...
Keep up the great work, and the great attitude!!!
You're doing SUPER!
