Why is 'I was at my most vulnerable' grammatical?
This is an example from a dictionary:
He took advantage of me when I was at my most vulnerable.

I understand what this sentence means, but I don't know why the clause 'I was at my most vulnerable' is grammatical. Is something left out after the word 'vulnerable'?
