I wish I had more patience, but I don't.
Its been two weeks now, and as of this morning, not only has there been no weight loss, but there has been a two pound gain!
I'm definitely staying within the calorie range and exercising. I've been lifting weights 3 or 4 days a week, but I don't think muscle gain alone explains the stubborn scale.
I have lost 1.5 inches on my waist since I last measured (maybe 2 weeks ago?) so I know there is something positive going on. I'm not really sure why the scale isn't cooperating.
I do remember the last time I got close to 300 pounds that it seemed to take forever to lose those lost 5 pounds. I'm not going to give up weight lifting, but damn I need to see some weight loss soon for my own mental well being!
