I decided to get on the scale a month later after joining MPF and after changing my lifestyle. I was very anxious to see if I had lost or had not.
Sometimes I felt like whoa look at me and other times I felt nothing has change.
So last night I jumped on the scale (Originally wanted to wait for Monday, but I was feeling discourage and needed to see some sort of result to not fall off track) and I was 10 pounds less! (My initial first month goal).
And this morning I jumped on the scale and I was 4 pound less then the 10 making it 14 pounds total that I lost this first month!
For the month of June I hope to lose 8 to 10 pounds!!!
Slowly but surely I am getting there =]
Super Excited =]

Kudos to you! I am equally impressed that you withheld weighing yourself for a whole month. What great discipline that takes! Glad you were so happily rewarded!0

That is wonderful! Awesome job! I really compliment you on being able to stay off the scale's for a month. Wish I could do that. But, my scales really motivate me. I get on them everyday, sometimes, twice a day. Espically if I eat something I have not ate since doing this. Yes, I only post my weigh in every Thursday, but unless I am gone, it's checked daily. I swear sometime's I am going to make my husband hide the batteries until Thursday, lol! Have you done your measurements? I did mine in January, when I started trying to loose weight, at 255 lbs. Then when I started here 3/18, I did not redo them, because I had only went down to 247 lbs. At the end of 2 months on MFP, I retook them. I had lost a total of 26.5 inches total from my body. I new I had dropped 2 jeans sizes, but that number, 26.5, was a HUGE motivation boost to me! Keep up the good work!!0

Thank you everyone!
I must admit it takes a lot, a lot of discplin to not hop on the scale. But I knew that number could break me or make me. Might make me feel too comfortable and lose track or might discourage me and make me quit all together Once a month seems to be working for me!
=] Woot woot to reaching our goals0 -
Way to go!! Thats awesome keep it up0

Great job! Always weigh in the morning after you've used the bathroom and before you've eaten. It's the most accurate way to weigh.
Also, it's normal to lose a lot when you first start out, but since you don't have a lot to lose, expect it to slow down quite a bit. I have 40 total to lose, have already lost 19 and it slowed down quiiiite a bit. I work out quite a bit so I had to increase my calories, drink a TON more water, and make sure I eat almost every calorie, including ones from exercise. Good luck! 0 -

Really, thanks for sharing that with me, I expected to hit a rock but not so soon maybe to get rid of the last 5 pounds...I usually don't eat all my calories only because I don't really get that hungry! But thanks...we will see what happens in a month!0 -
I'd heard it about the last 10 and didn't think it would happen so soon for me, either. I came to my MFPs for help and all their suggestions have helped. I'm watching my sugars, not caring so much about the fats so long as they're good/natural fats... I'm leaving less and less calories everyday and they're getting better. I plan out my meals right after breakfast. I put it all in my diary and that's it. I have to eat it. If I change my mind, it has to fit into my day. I mean, there's wiggle room but to have it planned out keeps me accountable and it allows me to space out my eating so once I work out and eat dinner, that's it. Nno more snacking 'cause for one thing, ain't got no more calories, and another thing, it's way too late to be eating.0
