    Maybe this is MY problem with losing weight. I've been at it for 4 wks (minus St. Patricks Day of course) and I've gained 4 lbs. I try to stay under my calorie intake, but above 1200. So anywhere between 1200-1500 depending on the exercise that day (Running, stairmaster, circuit training as a weights introductory and boot camp classes). Seeing these results on a much larger calorie intake makes me think that maybe I'm doing this wrong?

    Your ticker says you lost 10, though. 10 pounds in 4 weeks is NOT BAD at all. Could it be water weight? I know us ladies have that problem sometimes....; ) Keep at it.

    I'll join in too! No starvation here, just a moderate calorie defecit, some decent cardio and some strength training. My best results have come since I've eaten more and increased the frequecny & intensity of my strength training. Feel free to add me if you're looking for ideas/motivation.

    First one's from summer 2010:

    The 10 lbs was from before. Back in February I already had a profile on here but I wanted to giver for 5 wks straight to see what I could accomplish. I told myself I wouldnt weigh myself in til closer to the end. Today marks my 4 wks at it and I thought worst case is I just weigh the same. I sure hope it's water weight. St. Patrick's Day I drank. A few ppl said it could be that... This is a great thread tho! I love seeing successful stories of ppl who didn't starve themselves to look/feel healthy!

    i'm really trying to wrap my brain around this concept...i've read it, i've heard everyone on here and today (before reading this actually) i've upped my calorie intake goals to just see! i'm having a very hard time - weight or inches still about the same - so, i'm taking the plunge!

    y'all all look incredible - you inspire!
