Thanks Ladies :) i am on my way to take a looong walk in the woods. with my trusty water bottle at my side. :p

No loss to report this week, even though I ate 100% on plan and biked 5 days and walked every day. I wonder if maybe my calories are too low. I've kept it to around 1500, with a current ratio of 20-23% fat/40-45% lean protein/35-40% low-glycemic carbs. I drink at least 100 oz. of water every day, without fail -- usually 120-140. Anyone got any feedback?

Are you recording your measurements? That always helps me when the scale doesn't budge. Often either the tape measurement changes, or the scale measurement, but not both at the same time. And then sometimes, for no reason at all, nothing happens. There isn't any obvious explanation, and it's about as exciting as watching paint dry. It's just frustrating, and you just have to grin and bear it. But keeping records makes it easier for me, I can look back over the last couple of years and see I've come a long way.

Another thing I tell myself is: I spent years and years fat, what makes me think I can get slim and healthy in just a few months? The body has to repair all the damage I've done to it over the years, and that repairwork doesn't always show on the surface. It's like fixing up an old house-- you have to clear out and replace the termite-damaged areas before you can install the whirlpool and Italian marble tiles. But you get to that point eventually. Patience does pay off, at least it has for me. Good luck!
