Congratulations Farn0057, you had a great week.

I'm in again, and for the first time, get to start in the 180s.

I've been up and down, but today I'm tied for the lowest I've seen

Farn; congratulations on winning the last 5 pound challenge and thanks for starting this thread. I'm going to jump in too. I need to start looking at my weight loss in manageable mini-goal fashion. Because I think I'm soon heading to slower weight loss overall. Especially from 150 to 140 whoo boy. But who knows. Weight loss is a darn fickle thing. Good luck to everyone.

Oh oh. That's the wrong direction. I'm buying an elliptical trainer tonight. And this week I brought all my spring and summer dresses upstairs. Most of them are size 10 which I don't really fit comfortably until I'm 150 pounds or less. More incentive to get cracking!

I haven't seen many new lows this month, but had one today, so it's time for an update.

I think I’ve stalled...I’ve been bouncing around the same pounds for the last couple weeks, even though I’m exercising (not always daily) and keeping my calories low... any ideas why this would be? It’s getting to be so frustrating!

VickieLou 05-02-2019 09:25 AM

I'm finally back to Onderland again. Good Luck, Everyone!

I've had new lows 4 days in a row now. Very small drops, but still, yay!

Farn: Sorry, I have no advice to give you if you're already tracking your calories and are sure you're at a deficit, you ARE burning fat Sometimes our bodies are just slow to show it on the scales. I'm definitely a "stall and whoosher". I stall for a few weeks (I've done 6 weeks twice now, usually less) and then drop a bunch in a few days. Sometimes I just stall for a few day and the drop for a few days, but I rarely see a steady downward progression. I was stalled for the last 3 weeks, so it is nice to see the scale moving a bit right now.

Thanks Lacerta! I think that’s exactly what’s happening, where the scale just isn’t showing the progress. I had a little bit of a whoosh from yesterday to today, so that makes me happy!
