    I am also getting frustrated as I was very proud of myself for losing 10 pounds and then I maintained that weight for 5 months. Now in the last two weeks I have started a new work out routine and have gained 4 pounds! IT IS NOT MUSCLE. I can tell that it is just weight and it is very frustrating to me. Hoping this challenge will help to get me back on track :)

    Something I did this past week - I opened my Diary to my friends on MFP. It was very scary to fess up to what I was eating (and why I was gaining back weight) but I got some great advice, from one MFP friend in particular so it was worth it. She even checked my diary a few days later and complimented me on my changes so that made me feel good.

    Something else I did - I started doing sit-ups this morning; good ole regulation sit-ups. My sister told me I needed them (thanks Sis!). I did 10 this morning and am looking to continue by doing sit-ups every morning. Another MFP friend suggested I add planks to that to help build up my core. I might have to save those for the weekend!

    Something I did this past week: I stopped drinking pop and eating as many sweets. Oh and I started driking lots and lots of water!

    Shanna... Congratulations! That's terrific and inspiring! I am trying to cut back on sweets as well, as I am noticing a huge negative impact on my life from my sweet tooth.
