Nothing to be ashamed of! You did not fail at all. You lost 4lbs! The best way to lose weight and keep it off is to lose it slowly yet steadily. I know 1lb/week may feel too slow and like you're not accomplishing anything, but think of it this way (as my husband always asks me): If I told you that at the end of this year, you'd be 52lbs lighter, would you be happy? 1-2lbs/week is the way to go and you are well on your way! Keep it up!
