Look at it this way...
 
...you didn't gain all 42 pounds in just 9 months, did you? (I'm guessing you didn't.) You're doing great!

Good for you to look at your measurements in addition to your weight, because if you start to exercise, you'll be building muscle and you might actually see a weight gain!

(As an aside, I've gradually put on 44 pounds over the past 16 years, but I hope it doesn't take me that long to lose it!!)


Good Luck,

Laura

42 pounds in 9 months is excellent!! :cb:

I have lost weight twice with ww ... for me the losing is much easier than the maintaining.

You may have hit a plateau ... but try to think of it as maintaining your weight. As frustrating as it is to stay the same, at least you didn't gain :)

Good luck and keep up the good work
