I'm finally below the weight I was before the holidays. Hopefully, I continue shedding pounds like I was before.0

Today was scale day and either nothing is working or my scale is broken, I'm still the same weight. I know I didn't have a great food week, but I wasn't that bad, got back on track with working out, so I would think that something should've balanced out.
Just to note: I haven't given up, I am still trying, but I may buy a new scale if I'm still the same weight next week!0 -
The stretching was really nice. It's easy to overlook the benefits and pleasure a good stretch everyday can give. I'm going to be trying to do this every morning.0

The scale hates me for another week.. 4 and counting, so I'm trying to focus on the health part more than the losing weight part.
I managed 10 bicep curls with my new higher weights yesterday. ( previous was only 5 and the fifth one was pretty poor form)
I had my first Zumba Class on Monday and it was a lot of fun and I didn't die!
I managed to stay on track for both my food and workouts even with my hubby here for the last week ( we're stuck living apart for a year... long story).0 -

Sometimes for unknown reasons the weight just doesn't come off the way we think it should. And then, all of a sudden, you'll drop five pounds in a week and wonder how it happened. One week does not a bad scale make. If you're not doing this already, weigh yourself right after your morning pee and before you drink/eat anything for the day. If you weigh yourself like that every time you tend to get more consistent results...and that's when you're at your lightest. Also, weigh yourself more than once a week. I know people tell you not to, but seeing what the scale says almost every day motivates me.0 -
went down .8 from 187.6 - to 186.8 so i am not complaining
the one thing i have learned- is i feel better when i work out- mentally & physically
i try not to let the slow moving numbers on the scale effect me ( although i want to take the shot gun to it ) :laugh:
oh & i Love the mini challenges- I have 2 small girls & being able to get some reps in is great-0 -

Girl you do just that stay....stay focused on being healthy. You will have big guns soon!0 -
Well, I learned even once again I can adapt to my situation...I forgot my gym shoes for a class but I did it anyway! I can do anything! I can eat at a party and not gorge! I shocked myself.
Forgive myself when I can't exercise as long as I want but get in what I can!0 -
Thanks, but it's been three weeks and that's after a year of working at this and gaining back 20 of the 40 lbs that I lost despite all the work I was doing and after being stuck at the same weight for 6 months. I do weigh myself first thing in the morning, right after the potty and right before getting in the shower. I have weighed myself daily in the past and got to the point of being dangerously obsessive about it (I had a doctor who's plan requires you to weigh yourself daily actually tell me to cut back to once a week in spite of his requirements for the plan I was on because of how obsessive I was getting about it,) so after several doctors, a registered dietician, and my trainer telling me no more than once a week, I have to stick with that.Today was scale day and either nothing is working or my scale is broken, I'm still the same weight.

Ms Rach does your Super Trainer have any insight to what may be different?0

I forgot about good websites WWW.bodybuilding.com and WWW.skinnyms.com0

Did pretty good this week until today. I went to a bridal expo with my daughter and just lost all self control with the samples. But tomorrow is a new day

Nope, I pretty much have her and my doctor scratching their heads as to why the only way I can lose weight is do an extreme diet (which, of course, can only be done for a brief time and once I do one, I can't put myself through it again) the best guess as to why I've at least stopped gaining is because of having switched over to a high fiber food plan. From what I've read about the DASH diet (I bought the book to read up on high fiber "diet" so I could figure out how to do the high fiber thing) it can take a week or so to adjust before you start losing, maybe it's taking me a little longer.Ms Rach does your Super Trainer have any insight to what may be different?0 -

Would you mind keeping us posted on your progress with the DASH diet? I'd love to hear how you feel about it/on it and if your weight moves.
I'm considering the _DASH Diet Weight Loss Solution_ to help with meal planning. I really need to start preparing food at home more for both my and my husband's health, and it might be nice to start off with an already prepared month of menus.
I hope it works out for you... 0 -

Thanks; I'm not sure how I forgot about bodybuilding.com! ;-)0 -
Something, perhaps all is working for me. I have lost more weight. If you were the one that posted the squat jumps, I did those. Tough but effective.0
