    Weigh-in;
    I was supposed to weigh in yesterday & wish I had. Not sure if it would have made a big difference, but had a LOT of salty food yesterday.
    Last week- 210.8
    Today- 212.1
    I have to try to figure out a plan to take time out for myself. I have been working extremely long hours & have not been exercising when I get home. I need to get motivated and get back on the treadmill. It seems to be the only way I can lose weight. More so, I do feel better and have more energy when active. 🙁

    I am with you on this. My biggest frustration. Seems I can eat perfectly 7 days a week and the best I will do is break even on the scale. It’s like I need a minimum of 3-4 hrs working out to lose weight.

    Yeah that sucks. Just make adjustments and keep moving forward.

    Yup. Like I said awhile ago, working it is just a mandatory part of my life now. Luckily I don’t hate working out!

    I'm with you. I stayed the same weight since Dec 10th until Jan 22 and I workout a minimum 2 hours notincluding walking or steps. If i added those in there it would easily 5 hours. I know it is difficult but push through because once you get a whoosh, you will get a whoooosh. I went down 2.2 pounds over night, nothing changed, my body just finally caught up. Also are you taking measurments? It will for sure show a steady loss, even if the scale doesn't...Also a lot of people have spoke highly of taking pictures. You don't need to show anyone or post those pics, but if you get up the courage to take a photo of yourself a couple of times a week, i guarantee you will see a difference. Muscle does weigh more than fat and the scale can be deceiving.

    Yesterday was my 9th anniversary with my hubby so I decided to give the scale (food one) a break and just enjoy myself. I did eat a lot of food but not as much rice as I would have usually and I did eat a lot of veggies.
