    Wow, nice post. I was wondering why I suddenly stopped losing. It was getting a little worrysome there for a minute. I'll keep trucking along and see this thing through. Appreciate the words of advice!

    I like this thread. I think I'm stuck in #1 but with no weight loss at all. Hard to get motivated when I have such high expectation.:happy:

    i think im at stage 2-3. ive been on this website for about a month, but i've been trying to lose weight for almost 2. so far, i've lost about 16 pounds altogether which im really happy about, but i feel so frustrated because im plateuing and it's definitely a slow process. one good thing is that the other day i put on my "skinny jeans"- you know, the ones you hide away in the back of your closet, and tell yourself one day you'll be able to slide them on again? well, the other day i was able to pull them on, and zip them up ANd button them. granted, i could barely breathe and was sucking it in as much as possible, but i used to not be ablle to get them up past my thighs! so it was quite an achievement.

    *sigh* weight loss is definitely quite the struggle, and i guess im really just trying to stay as motivated as possible and do the best i can. sometimes ill have that slice of pizza or not have time one day to workout, but the best you can do is your best.

    also, for anyone who's interested- i've been doing Jillian Michael's 30-day shred and I just started level 2. The program is incredible. It really leaves you huffing and puffing and feeling like you're gonna pass out by the end, but it's only 25-30 minutes and once ur done for the day you are done- and it really does work! If I wasn't doing that program I'd probably be about 6-8 lbs heavier and even more frustrated than I am. Thank God for Jillian.

    Thanks so much for posting this blog! It's really really helpful.

    best of luck to all fellow fitnesspal's out there

    excellent piece of information - looks like I jumped in at the "last 10lbs to drop" level as I wanted to loose under a stone to trim up for my holiday.

    I've been watching one of my buddies (who shall remain nameless) who's been eating crisps and pies and all number of things that don't look particularly healthy and that person has consistently lost a ton of weight (well, not quite a ton, but you know what I mean) I've been finding it a little demoralising to be loosing just little by little while my friend drops pounds, however, I now have a better understanding of why I'm loosing just small amounts.
