    I am stuck myself, I am getting so discouraged..:cry: I have lost 2lbs in the last 8weeks. I keep trying differnet things, but nothing is working. I just gave up last night too.... I had too much dinner and dessert, and didn't log in anything. At least my dessert was angel food cake with pineapple/strawberries @ too much (whipcream.:sad: )
    I'm betting I wasn't that far over, but i felt horrible and I have been so cranky lately too.. I just wish I could get my weightloss moving again.. I wish to stop this behavior and get motivated again.:yawn:

    I also meant to say earlier that I am putting the scale away until June 8th. That is when my next weigh in will be. This is going to be really hard for me, because I have this fear if I don't weigh even if I am staying on track with my nutrition and fitness, that I will magically gain 20 pounds. haha.

    But, I am NOT getting on the scale until 4 weeks from now!

    Don't forget to take photos and/or measurements. That photo in my profile shows only a 3 lb difference.

    I heard from someone who was getting disappointed about not losing any weight but she lost over 5 inches off the waist.

    I have taken measurements, I've lost 2 inches around my waist,and 3/4 on my legs and arms and hips. yes I look leaner and I stand taller, but the stubborn stomach from having a baby just sits there. I am just going to take a break and try to relax this week. I hope it works

    Kimss, great job on the inches lost!

    I have to say that since I've not been logging and really trying to follow some of the tips I'm reading in this book, I already feel so much better.

    I was thinking this morning about the times I've lost weight and not really meant to. People would say, You look smaller - have you lost weight? and I was so, I don't think so. Maybe?

    So, I think it's a great idea to take a break and relax. :smile: I feel so much more calm right now.
