Its taken me 4-5 months to lose 20lbs at 40 years old and I'm very happy with that.

@ScreamingFox you're 40?! I thought you were 27-29

@ScreamingFox I tell people all the time, the safe and conservative approach is a half a pound a week. It's realistic and attainable

@Ferric67 I already have my helmet strapped on I forgot how sensitive the topic of age can be 🙈

@Ferric67 I agree. I had done super fast weight loss in the past and ended up burnt out. I couldn't sustain it. After the cancer thing I had put on about 20lbs.

This time I've been very diligent and patient and it's been great. Slow progress and lasting adjustments have been very sustainable.

@MartinTheFirst I'm not ashamed of my age! I love this
