You won't lose lb's in days. It takes a 3,500 calorie defict to lose 1lb. I would gauge things on a weekly basis )0

when i started i weighed myself once every 2 weeks. and the average was 1 1/2 pounds in a week. do not keep weighing yourself or you are going to get stuck in a rut. wait a week or two.0

Keep going and don't look at the scale too often! That can really discourage people because weight fluctuates, especially when your body is still getting used to these drastic changes you're putting it through! Don't weigh yourself more than once a week (unless you're doing the Monday/Friday thing).0

OK...thankx all...it's just SO TEMPTING to peek and see if it's gone down at all...but at the price of being bummed for the rest of the day...I think I will resort to once a week weighing...0

Agreed - you've been doing it for 3 days. Don't get discouraged. Keep on going.0

are you eating enough? 3 miles a day, make sure you arent eating too little and starving yourself0

Remember to drink lots of water and try and not go by the scale too much, go by how you feel if you notice your clothes slipping off you are going in the right direction! Patience is also a key - keep up the great work and you will see the results.0
