Went under 40 BMI on Monday the 3rd. Now at 39.5.

NightAngel - electronic scales save the previous value which is stored in memory. If the next weigh in doesn't change by more than (.3 kg for my scale), then they will just display the last value.
The reason they do it is so the scale won't hunt around and show different values every time you weigh if you jumped on and off the scale every 15 seconds. The makers don't want you to think you bought a piece of junk.
So you can defeat this by getting on the scale - say it weighs 150.1 lb. Get off and pick up an item that weighs something like a full bottle of shampoo. Now the scale says 151.5 lb.
Get off and get back on holding nothing. Now the scale says 150.0 pounds.
The scale would have never reset from 150.1 to 150.0 unless you did an intervening step with a different value.

This behavior is well documented on the internet. So if you are losing .2 pounds every day, the scale is still going to read 207, 207, 207, 207 until it drops more than .6 pounds or so (who knows the exact value...) - unless you do the differing weight step to change the value in memory - or get someone else to weigh since the last time you weighed. Then you should see the daily micro losses.

I actually had a woosh of about 5lbs at the beginning of this month which set me at 225.8, so I will not expect the world for the rest of the month.......:dizzy:--yes I will. I want an additional :luck2you: 7 pounds off, bringing me to 218.

SW: 225.8

Weigh-ins will be daily, but I will only log my official Tuesday weight.

NightAngel- Ha ha! so true! I have been going on about my DVDs a lot. Basically I started one programme last autumn, got hooked and now I'm half way through a second cycle, bored, want something else to start in march but can't decide what. I'm also not good with quick changing dance moves, but want something challenging too. Set myself a goal to do 3 programmes this year, so your guess about something new each month sounds right up my street. I could write reviews or sthg!!?

183 - way to go with your hasfit programme. Sounds like you're getting back into your routine! Hope running going okay after your break - my legs have been sore after that long run... I heard somewhere if you feel hungry it is your body tricking you - I have a mantra 'I'm not hungry, I'm thirsty'. Makes me laugh. I'm always hungry when I say it !!

Marli - Your post made me lol. It's good to have a challenge!!

What I'm noticing is how much I enjoy exercising these days. I'm not so excited by the diet though. Maybe I need to focus on that a bit more and get some new ideas/recipes/plans in place. This forum seems like a good place to start! ;)

I want to lose 5 lbs this month. It would put me over the moon if I managed it.

My other goal is to weigh ingredients/ better understand portion sizes.

Thanks :)

Hi Everyone! Sorry I haven't been around. I've been sick for the past couple of days and haven't come online for long. I broke down and took some meds this morning so hopefully I will start feeling better soon. I hope you all are staying warm and healthy!

I am about to my lowest for at least 20 years. I can remember being 198 for a long time years and years ago. I hope to get a big woosh and break through soon. I am thinking if I can get to 195 things will start moving faster again. I am trying to add in more exercise to push it along. I am NOT giving up no matter how long it takes.
