SO, since I have started this (like a week) I have gained 2 lbs. I don't get it. I am watching what I eat but I think that could be hurting me.

sigh. Gained a pound back.
So after dealing with my grandmother's funeral I got home and did two days of exercise but then we went to Cycle Across Maryland. My husband participated and I stayed in the cabin and watched the kids - so I was pretty much sedate the entire time. I was also there with a friend who is overweight who mostly talked about how…

I give up
I am so done with it!!!! And fed up:explode: Basically I've been trying to get down one simple size for far too long. I don't know what's got my goat today, maybe because I just realized my baby has just turned seven months and I'm still trying to get down to lose that last bit of baby fat or what but I've never felt so…

Ok, so this is going to sound majorly retarded but I just have to share!

Frustrated!!!
I lost weight quickly at first by just making small changes. I lost 9 lbs in about 2 months. Now, I've gained back a pound and haven't budged for 2 weeks. I still have 10lbs to go to get to my goal weight! :explode: :mad: :explode: :explode: :explode: :explode: I'm getting very frustrated. Sorry, just needed to vent.

Has anyone else had a pretty decent day and still not feel like it was good enough? I keep telling myself I did okay today... but for some reason I still feel horrible. I went to the gym this morning, I did a one hour run on the elliptical. I didn't have the time to do my two hour work out like I have been for the past…

Is this normal? Im so discouraged
I had been doing really well with the calorie counting. I had lost 14 pounds which I was very happy with. Seems like over night my weight jumped back up and now I have only lost 8 pounds. I have 100 pounds to go, so I am really concerned about the jump backwards. I have only been doing this for a few weeks so you guys that…

Discouraged
This year I have worked very hard and lost 20lbs. The last couple of months have been very slow and my weight loss has seem to come to a halt. It seems like it started to slow down when I started exercising. Does that make any sense? I started walking 1 mile everyday for the past 2 months and the little peg on my scales…

Is it possible??
Is it possible to hit a plateau after having lost only four pounds?? Here's the scoop: I started trying to lose weight in November 2007, but being in college severely put a damper on things...late night eating + no money to buy things other than Ramen noodles= no success. However, I did manage to lose 7 pounds - but it…

Any volunteers?
Ok I've been struggling for soooo long now. I'm wondering if there is anyone out there who can really commit to being my buddy-message me daily to make sure I'm on track and I'll do the same for you.
