16 months out...

I am 16 months post-op and only down 96 pounds. I kind of feel like a failure. I keep reading the profiles on here and it seems like I should be down alot more, especially considering I am one of those people that needed to lose approximately 150 pounds. So that leaves me needing lose about 54 more pounds. I averaged my weight loss out and I have been losing 6 months per month. That seems really crappy. Anybody who DIDNT have the surgery could lose 6 months per month. I dont understand! At first, I plateaued because I wasnt gettin in enough calories. But since I have up'd them I still dont seem to be heading down that losing side fast enough. Am I expecting to much? Am I being too hard on me? Dont get me wrong, I am grateful for the weight loss, I really am, but I just feel like I am not doing something right. Any Advice or words of wisdom??
