in Introduce Yourself
I started working out about two weeks ago with a personal trainer and I can see changes in my body but the scale says I've only lost 1lb since. I've been eating six times a day, small portions mainly fruits and lots of veggies. but gosh I'm getting discouraged I'm doing a 1 hour bootcamp style workout 5x a week and only 1lb? really? sigh.....

    My name is Lindsay. I have been with myfitnesspal for a while but I am just starting to get back into things. I have lost over 60 pounds and I have started a blog. If you would like to you can read about my weight loss journey and also get to see some gorgeous pictures of paradise!

    I went through this! Keep up on the fluids and play around with your diet a bit. I found taking out all processed carbs and limiting my salt + sugars worked. Eating back my exercise calories helped too.

    Don't get discouraged!

    I watch the inches I lose more than the weight. You are probably gaining muscle:)
