Ugh, I'm super disappointed. I'm only about 3 weeks in and considering I have a lot to lose I thought if I stuck to my calories I'd lose fairly quickly at first. When I've "dieted" before that's been the case. But The first week I lost six pounds and the second three. And now it's been five days of weighing in and I haven't lost anything.

I'm drinking tons of water, 12 - 18 servings a day. Staying below my calorie goal. Any suggestions? :(

    5 dayis nothin, just keep at it..this helps me--take the number of pounds you've lost and divide it by the number of weeks you've been on here, and if that number is 2 or higher, then ur doing awesome. I've been here 17weeks, plateaued 8weeks, yet my average is still over 2lbs a week somehow...2lbs a week is impressive...and I think if u do the math, you'll see that ur prob above 3lbs a week.

    Did u take measurements, ur prob losing mass inches
