gwbicster 257 Posted July 17, 2017 This is a dangerous thread because its not particularly productive to measure yourself against others- our own journey is a highly individualized experience. Men do better than women normally. Fatties like me do better than the "lightweights" who started at a more reasonable weight. Sometimes people get frustrated that they're not losing as much as "everyone else" when in reality, they are doing GREAT by their own standards. Proceed with caution! 12 BT816, LaRein, sacsa97 and 9 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just wanted to know how everybody weight loss been going for the first 3 months. Which is a legitimate curiosity, and that's okay!! There are many others that might take it as a comparison, even though that's ultimately on them, I think the poster was just showing his concern for who might be comparing themselves or not be as strong to see his/her own journey as their own. When I read "ONLY lost such and such" that is a flag of comparing; that's the dangerous part. You have done very well in your first two weeks, that's awesome...keep up the great work hon!
