I went to the Dr. to do my 3 month checkup. I've been working at losing weight and lowering my triglycerides (last august they were so high they couldn't be calculated)

This time they went from 359 to 259. not bad for 4months!

I only lost 2 pounds, and the lack of weight loss is very frustrating, but I've cut calories from 1600 to 1450 and I'm measuring EVERYTHING (before I didn't always measure.). We'll see how it goes.

Oh, that is great!! It is wonderful that your tri's are getting better!!!

never mind your weight - how's your size?

if your size has dropped, then clearly you've lost more fat than the scale is telling you.

the scale lies a lot; the tape measure never will.

i totally agree with the above....I was not loosing at all, really stuck, but measuring tape showed loss there. Then after a sickness (ok, food poisoning I think) something just clicked and I have lost and kept it off.....not that I am encouraging food poisoning but I think something just had to click!! it will happen. Your body needs to figure out what you are doing too. don't get discouraged!! the fact that your numbers changed has shown you are doing something!!!
