    If you're exercising try not to take note of the scales, try measuring instead as you are more than likely losing inches instead of pounds..... and I'm guessing it's the inches you're more interested in? I have lost only 4 pounds but I have also lost a good couple of inches just from the waist from the exercising.

    I have an open diary for food ideas, feel free to add me. :smile: :drinker:
  • Jules, congrads on joining the rest of us who want to lose weight. Sara is right you might be putting on muscle weight which weighs more than fat does so don't use the scale as your tool to success it will drive you crazy. measure inches or at the very least how your clothes fit you.
