Stay with it! I lost 60 lbs over about 7 months. Went though several spells of getting injured, encountering plateaus, etc. Keep slowly plugging and one day you'll be at your goal. I'll say its a heck of a lot easier getting around in the woods without that weight on you. And you feel better about yourself to boot. Congrats and I hope to see you post with another 25 off here after while
