I'm a slow loser, too, and am fighting for each ounce, as you say. I've been on a plateau for nearly a week and hate to sit here without a loss. This is hard, isn't it? I think when we get to some huge amount off, like 75 pounds, and feel good because of that, it'll be easier to deal with (or I hope so!). Right now, I just miss feeling "normal" and wish the weight would come off like other people (and I promised I'd never say that, too!)
