Default It's not earth shattering, but....
I'm tickled pink because I've lost 28 pounds thus far.

It's coming off very slowly, but research states that the slower you get the weight off, the better it is.

I'm thrilled

That's earth shattering enough!! You've obviously put in a lot of time and effort! I'm at 28 also And it has come off pretty slowly and I've finally accepted that. I think it helps to build healthy awesome habits. Congrats!!

28lbs is alot! And I agree.. with losing slowly, it has been taking me forever, but I think in the long run that is waaaay better for your body, it gives it more time to adjust.
