In case anyone else has ever had a small crisis of "I'M NOT LOSING WEIGHT FAST ENOUGH!!" Hopefully you can really put it into perspective like I did earlier...
Me: so....this is kinda frustrating....
Friend: oh?
Me: in the first 4 months of my weight loss, I lost 40 pounds.
but in the last 4 months, I've only lost 25.
Friend: plateau?
that's STILL something
Me: well, admittedly, I've been quite lax, but still. It's frustrating.
meh.
Friend: i understand that the closer you get to the "goal" weight, the harder it is to lose
me: and I'm sure my body's just adjusting, bla bla bla
but whatever
I'd rather be at 80 pounds lost than 66.
however, I'd rather be at 66 pounds lost than none.
crisis over.
Friend: true!
