So, I've lost 25 lbs. in 5 1/2 weeks as of this morning. That's a great achievement and I'm proud of myself for accomplishing what I have up to this point. However, this time last year, I weighed what I weigh now. Maybe a little less. And a year and half ago, I had lost 44 lbs. (which I subsequently gained back +10 lbs.) So, even though I know I should be happy with my 25 lbs. and keep on truckin', I'm just depressed that I'm just as fat as I was last year, probably fatter.
I'm not posting this for any kind of sympathy or call for support. I have every intention of working hard to keep the weight coming off. I just wanted to throw this out there because I know there are others out there dealing with this same issue and I want them to know they're not alone.
