this is so frustrating.. the weight comes off.. YIPPIE .:happy: . then a few days down the line it comes back :noway: :ohwell: :sad:
Will I make it to the Memorial Day Goal? I don't know. Honestly I don't care what I loose as long as it is more than 5 pounds. And I am able to hold it there and continue.
I don't think I am doing anything wrong. I use to do the frozen foods lunch, but I haven't had one in a while. I am eating better , so I have no idea what is going on here.0 -

I do the same thing I gain one week and lose the next but I am losing more than i gain. Don't let it discourage you. You can try measuring for inches instead of looking for pounds. I Started only weighing myself on Mondays because I go up and down all week. I also started supplementing a meal a day with a 300 cal protein bar, and it has helped me a lot. I also to a “cheat” day once a week to fulfill all of my cravings. So these are just some ideas to keep you motivated .
Oh and try lifting weights because muscle burns more than fat so the more muscle you have the more calories you will burn in a day.0 -
I'm trying not to get frustrated! I've been so good for three weeks now, and the scale is not budging (and neither is the waistband...lol). I do have to say that I FEEL fantastic and full of energy, so I guess it's doing something. I'm not giving up. After all, this is a lifestyle change and not a diet and I really feel that I could do it the rest of my life.

Memorial Weekend is also my birthday weekend. May 27th. I will be (cough, cough, mumble) 38! I was just telling my husband I don't want to be fat, frumpy and 40. I would like to be fit, and feeling great at 38! yeah, cheesy I know, but it's easy to remember! So, therefore, I am as of today 176. So, 10 weeks from now, if I lose 1-2 pounds a week, I will give myself a goal of 162-165.0

I am going to set another personal challenge on myself this week - I haven't done this for a couple weeks ........
I vow to do 200 cruches each night (50 each way .... regular, reverse, oblique left and oblique right).
I vow to do 50 leg lifts each leg each night (inner and outer thighs).
I vow to do 20 push ups (the girly ones) each night.
I vow to post with my weekly weigh in if I meet those goals this week.
Good job everyone ..... keep the motivation going!! 0
