Thanks for the encouraging message. I really needed to hear that today. I've been losing so slowly that I quit weighing myself everyday because it was too discouraging. I had a follow up doctor appointment today with my surgeon so I thought I would get on the scales and see what kind of progress I had made. I knew that I had been losing because my hands were showing the structures more prominently and I had to go down a size in pants. The scales at home showed that I had lost either 32 or 33 pounds. I was pleased. When I weighed at the doctors office, their scale only showed me down 26 lbs! I was very depressed. I know that I had several things in my pockets, heavy shoes on etc. so when I got home I stepped on the scales at home and the scales still showed I was down 30 pounds even with everything I was wearing. I appreciate the message you sent, it was very encouraging. - Melody
