Why? Help me make sense please.
I like it, but I'm befuddled. I don't understand the difference. You all are more objective. Point out what I'm overlooking or missing please. Why did I lose three pounds in 11 days, my goal and "ideal" was 0.6 lbs a week. (Not that I'm complaining, I'm delighted, but confused.) I usually don't have to really do much to…

I'm scared of the scale...help!
I just joined this site a few days ago and haven't weighed myself in quite some time. I guessed my weight when I completed my profile but I know that I'll benefit the most if I actually weigh myself and keep track of my progress from week to week. I'm scared that once I get on the scale it will be much higher than what I…

Frustrated!!!!
I have 5 more lbs to lose and no matter what I do, they just will not budge! I have NO idea what else I can do. I have tried everything and they are just glued to me. My goal weight was 130, but maybe I am just meant to be 135. Should I just leave it at that and stop trying? I DO NOT feel good like this though. I know I…

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…
