Well I'm finally on the right track. I guess I had hit a plateau. I don't think that I will be able to meet my goal for this challenge, but that's okay. I'll make it for the next challenge.

I also had a plateau for about 2 weeks, but it started moving after my fill and increasing my caloric intake. This week I have started working out every day instead of alternating. I'll take Sunday off, since it's the day of rest. I go for a follow up visit on 3/11, don't know if I'll get another fill, does anyone know how that works?

Good Luck everyone in week 5.

I can't believe what a fill and a new attitude can do for me! Out of the 220's forever! Soon maybe I'll hit onederland.

Can't believe the big numbers you guys post every week. At least the scale is going down again for me, after being stalled for a while! I should be able to make goal.

Ok, totally messed this up. I really couldn;t remember last weeks weight, so i went back and checked week three. I started at 189 and goal was 184. Oops. Well I guess I'll leave my new goal at 182 after all! Even better!

I do weigh 185 though, I did remember that! I should, I weigh myself obessively.

1 lb down again... not unhappy about it!!

[shortgal 5]

Sades: At least it's one pound gone!

I had my fill today. I had planned to ask for .5 cc and then last night after dinner, I was feeling tighter/fuller after dinner than the few days previously. Figures, doesn't it? Like when you have a rash and make an appt and the day of the appt comes and the rash goes away. Day after appt. rash comes back LOL

So we decided on .25 cc's instead. On liquids for two days, before I know what this one does. But I have another appt in two weeks anyway.

I do feel really close to good restriction and weight loss that was stalled, has dropped again.

To make my mother of the groom weddng dress goal, I have to consistently lose 8 pounds a month! Yikes! I've only lost at the rate of a little over 9 per month so far, so don't think that is attainable.

Have you tried an all liquid day to jump start weight loss again? I do that.

Here's what I have: Protein drink every 3 hours.

8am: One can Atkins advantage shake 160 C 15 gms Protein

11 am 1/2 bottle (10 oz) Isopure CLEAR pre-mixed drink. 80 c 20 gms protein.

Repeat every three hours until 8pm. If I can't make it all day on the cold drinks, I substitute a bowl of Soup, butternut squash Soup 190 c for the Isopure drink at the 5 pm meal and then at the 8pm, I substiute the Atkins shake with the 5pm Isopure drink.

640 calories if you stick to original plan with (85 gms protein) and about 770 calories ( 70 gms protein) if you substiute the last two.

That plan got me off the last plateau. The steady protein keeps me satisfied. I don't do that more than once every week or two.

Hang in there. all of a sudden, you lose a few.

I had a fill last week, and being 3 days of liquids was what I needed to jump start me again. :-D

Great Job everyone!!!!

Shortgal, I tried one day on liquids when I had no restriction and lasted till 6pm. It might work better now that I have some. I need to buy more Protein Drinks. I might give it a go over the weekend. I've lost 4 lbs since the challenge started so hopefully should get a few more off before it's over. Good luck everyone.

I only suggested it because I misread your post. I thought it said, you were NOT happy about losing one pound, when it said you were not UNhappy! Sorry!

Four pounds since the start of the challenge is great. I guess we have to expect that we will not lose at the same rate we did in the beginning. At least that's what I'm expecting.
