[quote=Anonymous]I lost 55 lbs, and it took me about 16 months. Slow and steady is the right way to lose weight, and you're more likely to keep it off. Also, weightloss will be faster in the beginning, and slower as things progress. When you become smaller, your resting metabolism will slow - this is where exercise is crucial. Exercise will help you burn more, and raise your resting metabolism slightly. But smaller bodies generally burn less, so it's natural that weightloss will slow. So... keep it up! One foot in front of the other, one day at a time, keep being better than you were before. Don't set yourself up for a "timeline" for a goal - because you may not meet it. It doesn't mean your weightloss isn't a success, but sometimes this is where the mind can play tricks on you. Any progress is still GREAT progress. Be proud of how far you've come already! [/quote]
