    I lost way less that by that point, and I've lost 234 lbs altogether. people lose at all different rates due to all different factors, so it's really pointless to compare yourself to others.

your level of commitment to your program will have a MUCH greater impact on your ultimate success than your rate of weight loss. Just put blinders on so you can't see how fast or slow other people are losing, and go full-steam ahead!

Catwoman7 is exactly right. You kind of spin your wheels comparing yourself to others. While reading all the posts on here I've noticed that some have lost twice as much as I have by this point after surgery, while others have lost less. I believe that our body goes into survival mode and it will let go when it's confident that doing so won't hurt us. Let your body do the talking!!! don't let your mind get hung up on other peoples loss or gains.
