    :huh: Hi hon, not sure exactly how you are following the daily intake and only lost 19 lbs in six months; according to MFP my daily intake is 1200 and I manage to lose 36 lbs :happy: in four months. The first two weeks I manage to lose 12 lbs without starving myself. You may need to push your photo session til the beginning of the year and revamp your food choices. :drinker:

    Keep in mind, she was only 25 pounds from her goal when she started. The less you have to lose, the slower it should be. She's losing at a great pace for the amount she has to lose.

The first two weeks I manage to lose 12 lbs without starving myself and have yet to start any exercise routine.

    Congrats on your fabulous loss!

    But we are all built differently and will lose differently. I have been losing .5 - 1lb per week on average and though I secretly wish it was faster/more, I know this is a good habit forming pace for me. Also I didn't have a lot to lose (as LorinaLynn stated) and that has made it soooooooo hard! And these last 6lbs even HARDER!!!! It's extremely frustrating and depressing to only lose .2lbs in a week and a half. *shakes fist at sky*
