OP, you are doing great! Time to give yourself a break and stop that fretting! There are going to be stumbling blocks along the way.....sometimes you can side-step them or step over them.....other times, you will have to pick yourself up, dust off and continue on the journey! A sense of humor helps! Laugh and move on! :flowerforyou:
In fairness the op is not doing great and i am not one for the go girl culture, they have lost a little weight, doing great is a stretch
You're ****ting me, right?
not at all, too many on here believe sugar coating helps, weak people need to wake up, 4 pounds in a month isn't great, wonderful, magic or even average, if someone says i look like brad pitt doesn't make it so, i know i am more like johnny depp
A pound a week is phenomenal and bang on perfect for what she needs to be doing, Mr. KillJoy. So what do you want to do, wait till she's at goal before noticing she's on the right track? Some MFPal you must be :ohwell:0 -

That's a pound a week. How is that not good?0 -

What are you talking about? 4 pounds a month averages a pound a week, which IS average and healthy.0 -

Lewis and Clark experienced terrible storms, so many mosquitoes that they couldn't see, hostile natives, food shortages, a mutiny among their members, terrible boils on their skin, the flu that almost killed Lewis, frostbite and many other obstacles and they didn't let all of that ruin their journey.
I think you can overcome your obstacle as well.0 -

to be pedantic 4 pounds a month isn't a pound a week, it also couldn't be perceived as great, average at best which was my point, but in mfp style yeah 4 pounds a month is monumental. you go girl, keep it up, whoopee etc......
or the op could evaluate and do better which long term would help them but no negatives here, no sir0 -

Rushing things can mean unsustainable methods, besides each person gets to pick their own pace they're comfortable with. Where's she rushing to??? If she keeps it up in a year she'll be at goal (example). Why is it so important that she does it in half the time?
Meh. You're just on another planet anyway0 -
It's a setback, sure. But getting sick isn't YOUR fault... it is just something that happens. Roll with the punches and don't give up. One bout of illness will not destroy all your progress - unless you allow it to!
Think about it this way: even if you gained back all the weight you'd lost so far, you've still built the habits that will ultimately help you reach your goal. You did it once, you can do it again. Don't give up.0 -

To be pedantic myself, OP said 28 days. Last I checked, that was 4 weeks. I'd rather see someone lose a pound a week and keep it going steady than lose a lot of weight quickly, which is what you seem to be advocating.0 -

You need to lose at least 8 pounds for your first month or you are not doing it right. i didn't say a month the poster did so i suggest you mention the error to them0 -

I love this sort of petty argument; am I too late to join in?0 -
Wow the OP sounds overly dramatic. You lost some weight, got sick, did not regain. So where is the failure part and ruined journey? Sheesh during my 70 pound "journey" I had many challenges. Never once used the term failure and ruin. Heck your story hardly rates as a set-back.0
