Mental Game
Hey, I am on a weight loss program, I've been on it since January of 2012. I've lost 157.25lbs. Great! I now have approx. 27lbs to lose and things have slowed down quite a bit. While I know this is a very natural thing and is nothing to freak out about, but my weight loss counselors tell me that for me a lot of my slowing…
