Long winded whine

I know that you are frustrated. I get it. But be careful about not appreciating what you have accomplished.  Also, be careful about tickering with your steady weightloss.

I know it is hard to accept, but in 6 months, you will be in much better shape than you are now.  In a year, even more so.  How long were you over 300 pounds? Don't you deserve to give yourself a year?  6 months?

BTW, stress is not good for weightloss. Be kind to yourself.  Actually speak out loud some words of encouragement several times per day.

I don't have advice to make it drop faster. I say that as long as it is steady, enjoy the ride.  You have come so far.

And yes my weightloss numbers were a lot bigger at first, but my surgical weight was a lot bigger too. I think that by the time I got around your weight, my monthly numbers were closer to yours.

Oh, I forgot. I don't buy a whole wardrobe. Only a few essentials.  I don't have a lot of variety.  I wear pants up to one size too big and tops up to 2 sizes too big (provided that they don't expose the boobs). I don't buy anything over $20- unless desparate (for specifi****asion). If your nice stuff is really expensive consider tailoring, but quite frankly, you will have to get rid of it anyway.
