    Sounds like water then! Don't worry your body should adjust to your higher water intake and eventually you won't retain so much.

    Wow, that's some serious inches lost, major congrats to you Sierra!

    Last week was my first one were I didn't lose weight, though I've been eating right. Think I need to also take measurements so I can look for victories there as well.

    When I started to lose pounds it was slow at first. I was stuck at 150 for a good three weeks. I continued to eat the good calories and do my cardio. I then added some strength training and that is when my pounds started to drop. Now, what I can strength training isn't what true strength trainers do (I'm an amateur); however, what I did worked. I never lifted more than 65 lbs. Maybe a few sets every night. Fast forward to today, I am starting to really do the real, correct strength training (from professionals). After a total weight loss of 33 lbs, I met my goal. Currently, I am trying to perfect my squats so I can build my backside that was lost during strictly weight loss. Keep up the great work and determination. You will succeed. BTW, I am 5'8 and currently weigh 137. I was at 130 until I started to build muscle.

    Update! If you're interested? Haha.

    So I measured myself about 10 days ago. It was at the end of the day, but then again... I had been dieting for two weeks already.

    I measured myself just now and I'm down 2 inches on my under bust, 1.5 inches off my bust, 3 inches off my hips, .75 inches off my thighs, .5 inch off calves, .5 off my arms, and 4 inches off my waist!

    FOUR off my waist!

    I'm very excited... haha. I'm at 275... so I've essentially stayed the same weight for 3 weeks.

    This is why we tell people not to give up. I'm glad you're seeing results. I keep a weekly log of my measurements. It can tell you alot over time. Also when you hit a streak of not losing, you can pull it out and see your progress. It helps keep me on track.
