So I lost .6 lbs this week. Great, it's a loss right?
But then the lady next to me - who joined a week AFTER me - got her first 5 lb. loss star! And here I am just barely at 2 lbs total los. Grrr.
Yes I know I shouldn't compare my weight loss journey to others. But it makes me worry when people say you lose the most weight at the beginning when you join. Well, I haven't been seeing big numbers! Just small numbers each week since I started 3 weeks ago.
I hope this doesn't mean that the loss rate is going to slow down even more after this! That would be REALLY disappointing.
I'm talking to myself trying to stay positive by saying that although my loss rate may be slow, it's still heading in the right direction and that eventually I will get there. I liken it a marathon. There are the fast runners that finish it in 2 hours or less. And then there's folks like me that take twice as long. It doesn't matter how quick you go, but just that you cross that finish line.
I will take solace in this...
