I posted this data back in April of 2007 to show what goes on with weight loss. Some of you newer folks might find it interesting!
-------
Week 1: -1/2 lb.
Week 2: - 1 lb.
Week 3: 0
Week 4: 0
Week 5: - 4-1/2 lbs. (whoa!)
Week 6: 0
Week 7: 0
Today [2 days later than week 7]: - 1 lb.
-------
These were my results from recording weight once a week on the same day each week, and as you can see, it came out to 7 pounds in 7 weeks. I did weigh more often, and in some of those weeks there was actually a GAIN in between recording dates.
So, don't be discouraged by weight stalls! If you stay with your program of weight loss, the scale WILL change. The only thing that will stop it is if you give up and choose to eat fattening foods or fattening amounts.
