    I'm a Friday Weigher like a lot of you. I was at zero loss this week. Only 1 pound last week, and zero the week before. One pound in three weeks is discouraging. I have changed my exercise habits from walking 3-5 miles 4-5 days a week to using the elliptical machine and playing tennis (they have lights and I can play after work). It's too cold and or dark to walk outside <i'm a wimp>, can't afford a gym or treadmill (already own the elliptical machine). MFP tells me I'm burning the same amount of calories, but I'm wondering if that is the difference. Any ideas????

    Hello Everyone,

    I apologize I haven't updated since 10/12. I have been batteling Bronchitis (now pneumonia) and have a lot of ups and down in the weight catagory. But here is my stats since joining.

    SW 385.2 W6 268.2
    W0 282.2 W7 267.8
    W1 277.0 W8 265.8
    W2 276.0 W9 262.8
    W3 275.4 W10 266.2 (boo)
    W4 275.4 W11 259.6 > Week 10 -12 Bronchitis/pnuemonia time. LOTS OF MEDICINE.
    W5 269.4 W12 263.6 (boo)

    Week 13 CW: 259.4. Finally back to one of my lowest weights since starting. Have been a little discouraged, but ready to see some lower numbers next week. Good luck, everyone. GREAT JOB ON YOUR JOURNIES.

    4 lb gone since Monday. I wasn't going to bother this Friday as it has only been 4 days but I just felt 'lighter' somehow. I can't believe. A few weeks ago I thought it would be impossible for me to get below 11st. Now I'm bearing down on 10st.
    Chuffed today.

    It looks like you are not too far off your goal weight at this point and so your weight loss will slow down. You also need to vary your exercise every 6 weeks or so or your body becomes used to a particular form of exercise and no longer sees it a challenge. High Intensity Interval Training can challenge and burn more calories and can be done on a cross trainer. You might like to look at Motiontraxx on iTunes as the have a few coached workout albums which might help to challenge you during your workouts. I too workout at home and have found these workouts very good at minimal costs,

    I'm down 2.8 this week! Part of that is due I'm sure to donating blood yesterday, but I certainly didn't give 2.8 pounds worth!

    Oh dear! I have gained back the 1.5lbs that I managed to lose over the last couple of weeks, initially I was not clear why but when I look at the weekly summary of my calorie intake it is not as good as I thought it was. I need to keep a closer eye on it, I am also wondering whether one of the reasons for slow loss is the I am gaining muscle. A more concerted effort is required next week.

    150 as of this morning. I forgot to weight in for a couple weeks so I think I'm down a couple pounds since I last recorded here. Slowly slowly working my way down into a slimmer range...

    I used to weigh in on Monday but Friday is much better!! I'm down 1.5 this week. YAY! (if I do say so myself!). I find that seeing the loss on Friday helps me stay motivated through the weekend when the temptations as easier to give in to.
