Been stuck for 3 days now at this weight, so not much progess yet. Nor do I expect much this week. Hope you guys are doing better than I am.

fattychickenato: Just the same advice you'll find from everyone: There is no quick fix. Move more, make healthier eating choices, eat less junk and more fruits, veggies, whole grains. For me, what has worked has been getting my hormone levels checked and then medications to correct a couple of imbalances (won't do you any good if your hormones are already where they should be, but I suggest everyone trying to lose weight get them checked), and then cutting out a LARGE amount of my sugar intake. I didn't cut it all, but I cut a lot of it. I also started walking 2-4 miles per day, every day. Good luck to you.

Some loss today. I'm happy with it. ANY loss this busy time of the month is always welcome for me.

So after being down and then back up again, I'm exactly back where I started. Not unexpected, and now I'm ready to get moving downward.

RunningRedHead: You're off to a fast start this time around. Great job.
