Well, I was overdue for a weight gain. I can't eat thousands of extra calories and not gain weight, and I know that.

So, how to move forward? Do well today. Then start over tomorrow. Stay active, don't eat when not hungry. Just because it tastes good is the worst reason for eating something. Got to remember that one!

    Great attitude. As I have learned recently it is not a sprint to the results we all want. Stay focused and it will payoff!!

    Last week I had indicated that I gained 1.5 lbs and I had gained 0.5 lbs the week prior. I had been well below my calorie goal daily and have been consistent in my workouts with 2500 - 3000 calories burned each week. As per my comments last week, I gained weight so did what I thought was logical and INCREASED my calorie intake. The results this week....I lost 2.6 lbs!! Turns out I was below my BMR so my body was not getting enough fuel. So to all of you, make sure you eat enough!! Hope you all had a great week and stay focused for this coming week!!

    lost 1.3lbs this week, but burnt heaps of calories, thinking it's just my body settling down to weight lose, I hope.

    Another entry to onederland, how I look forward to reading that! Congrats.
    And congrats to all of you who lost weight this week.
    And for those of us, like me who stayed the same, keep the faith. This is a lifestyle change and we need to accept that the scale does not always move despite our efforts. Last week I lost 4, so I am assuming my body just needs to adjust to that. Plus I have found that when I am looking forward to a milestone, such as 50 lbs gone, it usually seems to take forever.

    Lost 2 lbs this past Sunday. Hoping for good things this Sunday. I seem to teeter between gaining and losing per month depending on time of month.
