  • southernbelle, so much can account for a slight gain: water weight, sodium, TOM, ovulation (<----it affects me), not enough water, etc. Don't give up. The worst thing you could do now is throw in the towel. This isn't an easy journey and it's not always a fun process.

    SouthernBell02: Don't give up! I've become convinced that persistence is the most important skill in losing weight. Three years from now, you won't even remember how frustrating these three weeks were. Oddly enough, the exercise may be the problem in the short run, but in the long run, the new muscles will be working even when you're not and will help the weight loss come more quickly in the months to come.

  • 15 Sept: 66.2 kgs again, still....

    I know why this is happening... yes, as stated below, my leg muscles are building because I'm doing more with my running...but I've been eating junk. I don't know if it's my pre-TOM symptoms that are giving me the munchies at night, but I'm always feeling hungry a few hours after eating. This is normal for me when the timing is closer its starting.

    Oh well, I've been feeling discouraged and that I can't do anything. Yes, I've lost all this weight, but it's not lowering. I've been in the 66's for 2 months now I thought that running more and burning more calories would work at getting it down. I guess too much is going in... or maybe I'm not eating enough? Meh. There is more to it, but I just don't want to talk about it. I can't articulate it correctly in one-two sentences.

    Quote: I am so frustrated! ... I don't know why I went up but I'm at a loss...
    Muscle weights more than fat. If you are walking more often the chances are your leg (and other) muscles are building. I believe that's the reason why I can't seem to get out of 66 kgs, because I've just started running 6 km (nearly 4 miles) and I can actually feel my muscles growing
  • Ladies, Thank you all so much for the encouragement. I WILL NOT GIVE UP!! I did really well today despite wanting to eat everything in sight. I know that last week I had a few cheat items but not enough for that gain, so it must be hormones or muscle or something very stubborn! I had my hubby measure me today despite the fact that its 2 days early. I needed the boost that I knew losing inches would give me. I lost 5.75 inches this month so that helped a lot. I also bought two knew "smaller" bras so that helped too but most of all you guys were the biggest boost. THANK YOU!!!!

    9/15 - 154 <-- Yesterday was a high sodium day. I planned early last week that I would get myself a soft pretzel because it's been something I've been craving. I stayed within most of my target ranges but I had to get the pretzel with the salt and butter; what would be the point if I didn't?

  • My weight this morning on the new scales I got in yesterday

    251.00

    Stepping on and off they check out exactly the same each time

    I will keep the same starting weight of 256.4 recorded on the bad scales as the starting point for lack of any other way.

    6.4 loss overall for two weeks.

  • Sorry I haven't posted lately...been on vacation with the family I work for and working an insane amount. Haven't weighed but have stuck to my plan so I am hoping that next Sunday (when I can weigh on my scale again) I will be down to my goal!


    I will try to post more this week!

    Emme: Amazing job! 7lbs already

    BFR: That is a great loss for 2 weeks!!

    Tereh: You are rocking it girl!

    Everyone I missed:: Keep up the good work! May not be easy but I am convinced that it will be worth it!
