Would like a Buddy/Mentor/Confidant

[A Bari New JC 0]

My name is JC.

I had LB surgery 10-15-10.

I've only lost 12lbs.

I see a counselor once a week.

I'm wanting to join OA, but haven't made it to a meeting yet. I am reading the book & using the workbook.

I work out 5 days a week, and 2 of those days with a personal trainer.

I'm discouraged because I've read a lot of blogs etc of people who have lost many more pounds than me. I don't get it.

What am I doing wrong?
