slow weight loss

Apr 09, 2009

I have lost 85 lbs from the start of this journey. BUT, officially from day of surgery 9/22/08 I have only lost 69 lbs.  which is a little over 10 lbs a month.  My surgeon says I am doing wonderful and she is pleased with the rate I am losing.  However, I am somewhat disappointed, at least today I am.  I know we all lose at a different rate...and do not get me wrong, I feel wonderful...I am down from a tight size 24 to a loose 14..!  It's just the DAMN number on the scale that is soooo disappointing.  I don't consider myself a scale "addict".  I only weigh in on Friday mornings.  Does anyone have any suggestions or tips to rid myself of the number "mindset".  I know most of you will say don't get on the scale at all, but to me that is a "form" of accountability.
