Don't get frustrated slow losers!

I had a 6 week stall, only lost 1 lb. Since January 15, I've lost 8 lbs!! So excited! 13 lbs away from my second goal which is a BMi of 25 and no longer overweight. 10 lbs after that and I'm officially on maintenance. Yippee!! Let's just keep the Girl Scouts (cookies) away from the house!!

I have to admit, I am a little disappointed that I weighed in yesterday, and had only lost a pound last week. Rationally, I know 1-2 pounds per week is an average loss, and my monthly guest may play a part in Water retention...I guess we all just have our moments. I told my mom, "This is what normal people's bodies do during Weight Watchers!" That didn't work for me last time around. It amazes me that I have to eat 500 calories and have 80% of my stomach removed before I see the scale SLOWLY moving in the right direction! sigh...

Thank you for your uplifting news! (And for allowing me to vent.)

I'm frustrated too!! It seemed to fall off at first, 21 lbs in 17 days! Then nothing for the last 5

I started mushy foods, but can eat very very little. Wondering if my body is just hanging onto everything now. I'm moving all day with two little ones, don't have gym clearance for 3 more wks...please let me lose some more before then!!

Don't get frustrated!! I had a 5 week stall. Only lost one lb!!! I have now lost another 8. There is an article about how our bodies use and store glycogen. This is what causes stalls. Google it and you will feel much better!!! Hey!!! 21 lbs isn't anything to cry about. Good for you!!!!! xoxo, K
