    Successes / struggles this week: Losing my freaking mind. :rage: In the past 7 days I have been on-target or lower for my calories 6 times, and over by <50 calories once. I haven't really changed any of my habits at all. I even recalculated (lowered) my calorie goal after day #2, fearing I'd hit a plateau. Still, I gained weight on 6 of the 7 days, with a meager 0.2 loss on the odd day out. Compared to my previous 2 months or so of consistent loss, I'm just clueless. The effort hasn't been changed, why are the results changing? About ready to just stop caring. This is beyond frustrating. I've been a weight losing machine, and now it appears the machine is broken but I can't see anything wrong with it. A day or two is one thing, but a solid week of gains despite doing the right thing....

    So. How was everybody else's week? :smile:

    I'll be weighing in on Friday, but I know my struggle for this week - stupid stomach bug. Probably won't do much to my calorie intake, but exercise is out of the question for the next couple of days. ugh

    Hope you feel better soon.
    Remember - it's not the end of the journey, only a temporary setback.

    @Wolfger Do not get too discouraged. A plateau is probably what you have officially hit. Your body has gotten use to your routine and you are probably going to have to shake things up a bit to start a loosing streak again.
