Hi Flopster, I was just reading your thread and you talk about your 7lb loss not being much - it is fantastic. OK it's not a huge amount but it is half a stone, think how that adds up. You could have gained or stayed the same, you didn't, you have lost half a stone. I think thats brilliant, you think how thrilled you would have been when you were at your heaviest to have lost half a stone. I think the nearer you get to your goal, the more, (understandably), impatient it is easy to become. You are doing it Flopster and I see you as an absolute inspiration so please pat yourself on the back from me. Love and hugs
