Congrats on hitting 147, om!
OM- Thank you for your suggestions.. I have been thinking that I should go to the gym and just do some of the resistance training. It is hard to not have a steady routine.. I hurt my ankle running on the rotating stairs and something happened.. It has been weeks of pain and I finally got it checked out. Blah!
Congrats on your 20lb bench mark! Thats huge!
I seem to be stuck.. I am going to up my protein this week and try and limit my carbs and sugar. Hopefully this will help!
Thanks RVA and Fe! Good luck this week!!
I didn't get to my goal weight last time here I go again!(=

One week in and I'm down 1.8 pounds. I've been fluctuating up and down for two weeks now, so this might go back up.

I've been struggling with whether or not to check-in with my weight today, but have decided not to. It's my wedding week (Saturday - gulp!), and I'm thinking that I won't see the number that I want to see, which could just send me into a tailspin of unnecessary panic. So, yeah.
As for the rest of y'all, I am impressed with all of the effort that everyone's putting into their goals, and hope you keep it up! It pays off. Good work!
Congrats RVA!! Have a great week leading up to your wedding! I hope you have a great week and wedding!!
Do you ever feel like the scale is stuck?
I just can't seem to lose.... What is wrong with me?
Thanks, gracie!
Fe2493 - Yes. Yes, sometimes the scale is "stuck" for me. I try not to worry too much about it (the whole "keep calm and carry on" thing). Also, I use measuring tape to check my other numbers. Usually that makes me feel better!
Congrats RVA! You are making the right choice - you have more important things going on this week, and it's going to fly by. Make sure you take the time to ENJOY yourself!
Best wishes, RVAscreenwriter! Definitely a week to do whatever feels like the best self-care for you.

Fe2493: The scale got stuck for me about every 20 pounds or so on the way down. Since I'm easily bored, I often used that as an excuse to learn about and try a new plan. But I also think that my body needed the resting points.
