Default Turtling along

Just wanted to post for anyone who is struggling with losing slowly. I regained a lot of weight a few years back due to illness and stress and probably rebound from going too low due to stress (divorce). I finally solved the health issue that was causing all the inflammation and started losing and I thought it would go quick. But, while the gaining happened in spurts of 3-4 pounds a week, losing has been slow, slow, slow.

It's been about 15 months now and I've lost about 30 pounds. That makes just two pounds a month of loss, on average! Some months I lost nothing.

Just wanted to encourage everyone who is posting low losses. It will happen, just slowly. It WILL be sustainable.
