    I'm down just under 15 pounds since I started the first of December. I'm so happy with all the NSV's I've had as well, including daily logging everything I eat and the exercise I do each day. I feel so much better about myself emotionally and have so much more energy than when I was a couch potato. I wake up with anticipation of the day instead of having thought of shame, regret, and guilt. I've begun to declutter my home, which I think goes hand in hand with decluttering my body.
    So pleased for the giant leap you are making to living a healthy lifestyle. Way to go!

    Just did a friend request as well, @BMcC9. Hope you get it figured out soon.

    Thanks both @trimi1104 and @BonnieHosk85 for sending trial Friend requests. I send further details (tried to log on from computers NOT usually used by me, therefore not connected to / affected by my router OR each other's router ... ) updating the My Case info. I received the same error message in all cases, and let IT know that.

    Stay tuned - l will let you know if they manage to accomplish anything THIS time.

    I was a bit discouraged that I haven't been able to break below 142 (keep hovering at, then slipping back up a bit, then hovering at again over the month).

    But today I took the 3 measurements needed for the US Military Body Fat % calculation website - they were down from Jan 2 - and the resulting calculation was 1.5% lower!!!!

    I feel MUCH better now - the weight may be mostly plateauing, but changes ARE happening!

    If anyone else seems to be plateauing even though they are not using passes, maybe that is the case with you too!

    I find a 48 hour fast can get you through a plateau, or just change something in your schedule if you eat 2 times a day go to 3 times or 1 time for a few days, if you work out in the morning go at night instead for a few days just try and change one thing for a bit and it should help break the plateau

    You said it! I could not agree with you more. What I love about UAC is that instead of focusing on losing weight it focuses on our health and therefore our happiness. But it’s awesome that those of us still losing get that benefit. I have a number of months to go before I’ll be in maintenance but I can tell already that UAC will be a great tool there as well.

    I am stepping fown into maintenance now ... just a pound and a half from goal. I am absolutely certain that the UAC will be vital as I learn how to live life in maintenance.

    I have found that each step in this journey is a learning process. The one thing that remains constant, though, is tracking, not exceeding alloted calories and exercise. I expect to be here for the foreseeable future!
