    I got quite sick of the same number showing up on the scale for 6 weeks. Then I lost 2.5 lbs and was thinking I'd broken through the plateau.

    Bad week last week, traveling for work. I'm back up a bit. It's distressing, but avoiding the scale has been my downfall in the past. By not wanting to know what the higher number was, I kept putting it off and putting it off until the higher number got out of control.

    I just keep fighting and hoping the scale will eventually budge. I can't let up just a little because I'm not gaining this weight back. I'm just not!

    There is a theory on here, for women and TOM, that our metabolism goes up between ovulation and starting our period, thus our bodies require a bit more calories. I'm in my first month of trying this, so I have nothing to confirm yet.

    It sucks so bad.. I dont want to put in my current weight and have my ticker go down... that would mess with my motivation I think! I am going to try a few things.. most of all I am going to be upping my exercise (cardio!!!!) much more then what I have been doing. Thanks for all the help!
