    20 lbs that's an accomplishment! Yay you!

    Just keep at it slow and steady.

    I don't know what you start or goal weights are, but after I got 2/3rds the way to my goal. I shifted down to lose 1/2lb/wk. Harder to be patient, but since I've less to lose now, increases my chances of success.

    Be patient go slow, you don't want to end up yo-yoing
