Five pounds in a month may not be very exciting, but remember, this journey is a marathon, not a sprint. It took me many years to gain 150 pounds. I've been at this for 16 months now, and I've averaged 5.3 pounds a month, but I weigh 83 pounds less than I did when I started, and I find that very satisfying. You're doing great, keep up the good work. 🌈 

Shirfleur is 100% correct !! Slow & steady will result in a more maintainable and healthier drop. Also, think of it as a new relationship with food versus a "diet". Best wishes for success on your journey!!! You've already made great progress! 👍👍🌈🌈 

5 lbs is wonderful. and remember you go to the gym. muscle.
