Thanks everyone.  I am definitely taking it as a NSV.  Enjoying the moment and accepting the compliments.  Have a great weekend!!!

I think I am just having not a good week with the scale.  I go to my 1 month appt. today.  It seems like the scale has stopped moving and sometimes even gone up a pound or so since I've been trying to concentrate on getting my 64 oz  of liquid and getting all my protein in.  I was losing more when I wasn't really focusing on it as much.  But I understand it takes time..... (yada yada yah). 
 I really like your prospective.  That is a better way to look at it.  Thanks for the encouragement.


 

It's been a while but I'm 6 weeks out and yes I'm a loser 19lbs down not much if I compare myself to others but that's 27% of the pounds that I want to lose and its 32% of the pounds my doc wants me to lose so I'm doing wonderful..........I'll keep everyone posted
