Ugh!!! For the last few months, I have been hanging around in the 240's I feel like I can not escape the 240lb mark. I feel like I am meant to be 240lbs+ forever. It's like I will finally get my weight down to the 230's (lowest was 237.6 a couple weeks ago) and it will stay there for a week, then it will shoot back up to the 240's...going up as high as 245 sometimes. I am SO sick of this! This is the reason i fell off my diet in the first place. I can't take it anymore. It's been like this for months!!! Should I start weighing in once a month now? Part of the reason i think is because I get PMS 2 weeks early...that is such crap. Makes me want to only weigh in once a month around the time I am at my lowest. Good idea or no? I feel like I am going to go crazy! argh

I watch my sodium a lot...I try and not eat anything that has over 300mg of sodium in it. Even though I have gone over my sodium limit in the last few day, I'm usually pretty good about it. I try and eat a lot of potassium so it helps flush out sodium. I know it's probably all water weight, but it never did this when i first started losing weight. I even used to lose when it was TOM time.

I'm also starting to think that I should stop strength training because if I'm gaining muscle mass, it's going to frustrate me because the scale is going to go up

TDGee

Take your scale. Put it on top of your refrigerator. FORGET IT IS THERE.
Continue eating right and exercising. It will happen.
