June 18 will be a year that I had my surgery. I have lost around 60 pounds and have 25 more to go to reach my goal. I will be honest and admit that I have been very frustrated many times with my slow weight loss. I figured I would have been at goal by now especially with me working out like a mad woman. But I have realized something…so what it takes me a little longer to get to my goal than it does others. What's the hurry? This is a lifetime thing. I am happy and I feel great, like a completely new person so I will keep trucking along and doing what I'm doing. I will get there.

Perhaps you (and all of us) should concentrate on your body fat percentage. My NUT laughed at me when I told her my fantasy goal is 125. She pointed out that with the muscle mass I have from weight lifting I'd have only 10% body fat! BMI isn't a perfect measuring device. It is strictly based on height and weight. Muscle is much heavier, but smaller!
