    It pays to put your glasses on when stepping on the scale. LOL. It's an old balance scale... Oh well, still going the right direction! Thanks.

    Okay, I may be messing up peoples dates but I weigh myself once a week, same time, same place, same clothes. I find I don't get hung up on scale fluctuations and figure its accurate. Anyway, point is I weighed in today.

    Starting weight 265 lbs
    Weight 1st Sept 239.5
    Weight 8th Sept 237.5

    Good start to month and hoping I can keep it up. Have been more active and want to continue with it.

    Please give encouragement to others.

    NOTE: These posts reset at 500. If the thread locks go to the last post and look for the link to get to the second installment.

    To make things easier let's keep the same weigh-in days from last month what was a Saturday but if you want to do it on another that is fine.

    I've stayed within my calorie goal all week. I am unable to exercise due to a fractured disc in my back (doctors orders) and the lack of exercise and hovering around 164 for 10+ days has got me a bit down in the dumps. Tomorrow is a new day but any words of encouragement would be appreciated.

    @typeitdaily Great steady loss! Good for you!

    Hi everyone. Welcome to all the newbies and congrats on all the nsv and losses. To those who struggled keep pushing through u will get there. So I figured my problem. I will not do heavy lifting the day before a weigh in I will do cardio instead.

    You're doing a great job!
    You must be doing something right to lose 40#.

    I will try to post the link where I read an article about how as you lose weight, your body fills up the fat cells with water. Until your body decides to get rid of the water, your weight will stay the same.
    But your clothes will feel a bit looser. <<--- do you do body measurements?

    I can't see your diary:
    Another thought is to reduce your carbs, and increase your protein.
    I swear, carbs to me is like a drug! Once I eat 1-2 crackers, I want to eat the entire box!!!

    You can do this!

    Total weight lost: 4#

    Day 7 of diet, so it must be mostly water weight loss.
    But since I'm not eating any crackers or sweets or night-time crap, I'm staying around 1200calories a day, so I may have lost 0.6# of real weight.

    My clothes are looser;
    My measurements went down a bit.

    Let's do this!!!

    Off to the gym.

    @huango
    Thank you so much for your words! I am definitely down in the dumps because I teared up while reading them.
    I try with the carbs. I do good (meaning lower carbs, higher protein) about 3 days a week, then the other days I can only achieve "normal" levels. I weigh everything. Obsessive. I log everything. I'm not hungry and eat between 1250 and 1360 calls per day. I measure myself every 2 weeks. That has been stagnant for 2 weeks also.
    I think I'm bummed about the fracture. I will allow myself to be a bit dumpy today, then brush myself off by tomorrow!
    Thank you thank you for the kind words Amanda! It really made a difference!
    Nice loss on your part too! I'm pretty short too! 5'2"! The struggle is real!
    Have fun at the gym!
    Thanks again!
