I think that we need to remember that each of our bodies are different and while I may be on a plan where I lose 7lbs in a week, you can't compare yourself to that if you are on a plan where you lose 7lbs in two weeks.

Just as we are all different in how we think, etc, our bodies are wired differently. I think that ALL of our victories and efforts are cause for celebrations with fanfare and grandiosity!

Kudos to each of us in our efforts to be healthier!

Thank You, Christie......it was tongue in cheek.....

And I can't say "measely" any more....because I've lost 5 now....
