    Not nearly as dramatic as the photos posted here, but I weigh a few pounds more now than I did in July, but I'm wearing smaller clothes and look leaner. Screw the scale. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/LorinaLynn/view/-f-the-scale-203555
  • This is a great post! I lost 3 lbs the first week, 2 lbs the second week, 2 lbs the third week, then gained those 2 lbs back and have sat at 175 lbs for 2 weeks now (started at 180...). However, I notice things changing with my body. I feel better, sleep better, look better, and can wear clothes that I haven't even contemplated for the last 6 months. I know you're not "supposed" to weigh daily but I do. I weigh first thing every morning and say to myself "It doesn't say 180 anymore!". That kinda kick starts my motivation for the day. I don't get worried if the scale doesn't move or goes up a lb for a day because I know the system works. Looking better in my clothes/wearing smaller clothes/having a better body will win over what the scale says any day!

    This info is fantastic and just what i needed. Been on same weight for while but am sure body shape chaning etc. The article from Charlene is fantastic, i have been doing lots of JM Dvd's so this could be why no much movement on the scale. Feel motivated to keep going.
