Trish, don't give up! Even if you continued to lose only 5 lbs. every two months, you'd still have lost 30 lbs. by the time a year rolls around. I know that doesn't seem like much, but the health benefits from that could be amazing! Slow loss is so much better than no loss at all! Think about this also: your blood pressure is probably improving, and your cholesterol levels, etc. I agree that maybe you can lower your dosages of antidepressants. Check with your doctor! I've always been prone to depression, but never took antidepressants. Since being LC, I've had NO incidences of depression, or anxiety for that matter, which I have also struggled with my whole life. I feel much more emotionally stable eating this way.

Hang in there, okay? It could be that your body just needs time to adjust to this WOE. You're doing good! Don't think of this as a "diet", think of it as a way of life. That way the weight becomes a smaller issue compared to your overall health.
