I weighed 152.6 on the scales this morning. :( Oh well, just gotta keep pluggin' away!

Thanks Shasta.

pint- hopefully it is just water gain.


Today I am focusing on my water consumption. I did pretty bad yesterday and didn't even realize it until shortly before bed and I wasn't about to chug a bunch of water so I could wake up a ton of times throughout the night to pee. lol So I have some making up to do.

I've been really slacking with water the last 2 days, too, Kay. I gotta step it up today.

158.6 this morning! Very excited to be into a new "decade."

GW: 155
CW: 168.6

---I really truely have no CLUE what is going on w/ my weight. I have been struggling with the 168-169 range for the past 10 days now. I guess today I'm going to try to UP my exercise since I have came to some sort of plateau/stand still. Wish me luck.

Congrats just keep swimming!


JLNichols07- Good luck, try mixing up your usual food and workouts.

jlnichols, i hovered around 153 for a month awhile back, and it was awful! you honestly just have to ride it out. reassess what you’re doing in your routine now and see if there’s slack anywhere. I had to admit to myself that I was cheating more than I should have been, which was no doubt keeping me stalled. but if you’re doing everything right, the weight will move. sometimes having a day off plan sorta ‘resets’ the body into weight loss mode. sorry hun, i know how frustrating this is for ya :hug:


sooo i ate a small piece of chocolate last night (that, funnily enough, my trainer gave to me), only 80 calories worth, and about 1 hr later, my mid section had puffed up a good 2-3 inches! gut AND love handles! it was amazing and horrifying at once... lesson learned.

i’m pretty dang sore today. hoping that the sore-ness will go away in the next few days and i’ll see a drop on the scale :carrot: fingers crossed!

I am hovering in the 238-239 range and it sucks, I really wanted to see 237 for my official weigh-in tomorrow, which would be a 2-lb. loss for the week, I never lose 2 lbs. in a week...I am a slow loser. Oh well, one pound lost is better than any pounds gained!

Thanks ladies! I am pretty excited though because I got on the scale mid-afternoon which I hardly do and it was 167..I don't ever see low numbers during the afternoon and it was right after a workout (so that probably had something to do with it!) **fingers crossed** that i'll see it in the morning!

JL- that's awesome!

I still haven't seen 147 since last week...I've been playing around in the low 148.'s. It's annoying, but I've only been to the gym 3 times this week due to an off after work schedule. I am hoping to get another workout in tomorrow so I'll atleast have 4 in for the week.

We have our family Christmas pictures tomorrow. Me, Hubby, Dog 1 and dog 2. Hope they turn out cute!

Thanks for the welcome! :hug:

I am down to 291 today :carrot: This week I will see a new decade and say goodbye to the 290s for the THIRD and LAST time!

147.6 this morning! Fingers crossed that I can force it to stick around!

Linds -- awesome that you seen 147!

Sadly, I woke up this morning and the scale read 168.2 -- Although I have gone down in ounces ...I still am a bit confused on why my scale told me 167.8 halfway through the day and then went back up at 168.2 -- I stayed w/in my calorie range and even exercised one more time before bed..hmm confusing

Jumping in on this one!!

SW: 180
CW: 180
GW: 169 or lower

justaloozer, yes ma’am! you get outta those 290s and stay outta them! love it... :dust:

linds, have fun taking pictures! well done on hitting 147 :D

JL, don’t try to analyze too hard. I know it sucks, believe me I was there too, but without knowing what your day-to-day is like, i can tell u that there are a million reasons the scale doesn’t move... water weight from that second workout being one of them! hang in there!

Thanks shasha :hug:

JL I agree with shasha! I'm betting the water weight from the second exercise is all that it is! I bet you will see your drop soon! Stay focused!
