I didn't really expect to see much difference on the scales this week because I've added more strength training to my workouts, but this morning I was down 3 pounds.
I'm actually down five pounds, which gets rid of most of the 6 I gained on vacation. Like I said, most of it was probably water weight. But it sure feels good to be back in the 280s rather than up in the 290s where I've been so long!
I gained weight this week (.6) for the first time since January but since I'm also having about the worst TOM that I've have in months, I have a feeling that's enough. I'll just do better this week.
Nothing again for the second week in a row. No idea why, I have been on plan and exercising. I have been strength training for 10 weeks now, and perhaps as I am getting stronger things are just slowing down a bit. I know I am losing inches as I have lost another dress size in the last month!!!
Congratulations to the losers, commiserations to the gainers and sufferers of sticky scale syndrome!
196 for me this morning. Thats a 7 pound gain in all the months I havnt been here. (I cant remember exactly when I stopped trying) So all in all I'm OK with 7 pounds. At least it wasn't 17.
I lost 2 pounds!! I am just beside myself! 2 pounds in the first 2 weeks of on-plan exercise and healthy, low-cal eating is actually a little sad. Before chemo I'd have lost 5-7 pounds, but in light of the fact that I was told to expect to lose nothing -- I'm thrilled about the 2 pounds lost!!
It's just going to be slow for a while, but I'll still progress..... Yay!!

That's great news Sarah. Your back in the 20s too. You will be in onederland before you know but your small goal of 221 is the way to go. Keep those small goals in focus and the big one will happen all on it's own.
Good work to all the losers and for those who gained just keep focused you can do it.
Sarah, I am more happy that you have lost two pounds than I would have been for my own loss!! You so deserve it, and well done!!! You're an inspiration!!!
