Default Slow losing

I've been trying to lose the same 20 lbs for the last 10 years (at some point it inceased to 50) and I always hop off a plan within 2 weeks when results slow.

I finally sat down and did some math... 1 lb lost per week seems excrutiatingly slow. Yet if I had been consistent in the last five years I would have lost 52 lbs per year or a grand total of 250 lbs.

That means I could have met my goal several times over!!

So ask yourself, five years from now..do you still want to be on this roller-coaster, or do you want to be the tortoise tht won the race?

..Max..
