Talking 30 pounds!!!

Dear Lessara,
You've lost 30 pounds! That's great. You are shrinking!!! I think it takes a lot of "normal" weight people a hit in the head for them to really notice when a larger sized person loses weight. Don't gauge your success by their opinion. I know with me, I look the same but smaller. As I lose more, I know it will look more noticeable. But, just the physical differences I notice, keep me going. Like my feet not hurting, having more energy, being able to hug my husband closer. Even just noticing my stomach is not as close to the steering wheel in my car. Only heavy folks can understand how little things like that can be so encouraging. So keep it up!! Don't be discouraged by a stall, just keep working on it. When I first started I kept a journal of everything I put in my mouth...Sometimes it was hard to be that honest to myself. But it helped me figure out what was working for me and what made me mess up. Maybe that will help. Victoria
