Been a while since I have posted anything, but after being on a plateau for a couple of weeks, I had to post. Lost 4 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If your scale gets stuck, don't give up. This too shall pass.

ricksnaustin

No. It was stuck at 225.5 lbs. :laugh: I was going to throw it in the trash today if it didn't read something else, even if it was higher.

Repeat after me... The scale is not my friend. I will not let it define me.

My scale only changes about once every 3 weeks. So I weigh once a month.

nope the scale is not my friend. I will not let it rule me or define me, and I am not going to go nuts over the scales, I just know that I am feeling so much better and my clothes are about falling off of me, and that is all that matters to me.:flowerforyou:

I think I need to tell myself this every single day of my life.

Well said!

The scale is a lousy, no good, piece of electronic scrap sometimes. LOL You are right. I have lost two belt notches and think I will have to buy a smaller one soon. I am on the last notch.

I'm stuck too....:grumble: .for the last 3 weeks I go back and forth between 160-162. I am hoping that by next week and the end of TOM , I will break the 160's and start heading down again. I was going so great at 2 lbs a week since joining and then.....SMACK.....everything just stopped. I am trying to keep positive and drink more water......I'm drowning here!!!!!!!! :drinker:
Just thought I'd share... I hope you all have a good weekend..

I know how you feel, I am keeping at it, and hoping to push thru, we can do this together, we can get it going again.

Thanks for the encouraging word. I too stall for a bit but that wa of my own doing. It was more of a mental stall rather than just a physical stall. I had stopped logging in for almost 2 months. I really don't know why, I just did. I ate and gain 7lbs because I wasn't putting in my food to the calculator. It was all me.

During that time, I re-evaluated my "whys". I feel different. I feel good.

Thank you everyone for your shares and inspiration.

Oh and one more thing... this time around I am DRINKING my water. It has made a huge difference.

I am drinking 2-3 liters a day on average.

And you're right, water makes all the difference in the world.

Repeat after me... water is your best friend (even though it too should not define you... except that I think on some biological level it does... )
