I've been on MFP for almost exactly 2 months. Today I had my first gain on a weigh in (it was only .75lbs but still...) so I'm posting this to remind myself how far I've come and to stay motivated.

This was me at the start.

    Wow, great job! Forget about that 0.75 lb. Keep on keepin' on, and you'll keep heading downward.

    One thing that has worked for me in the past:

    1. If you've been overeating, get back on the train as fast as possible
    2. If you're tracking perfectly, you might be hitting a plateau. Go out for a big meal (only one!). The body will go, "Oh, we're not starving, eh?" and will fire up that calorie-burning engine again.
  • Super cute!
  • you look great...don't worry about .75 pounds...it'll keep coming off if you keep working at it...my weight fluxuates about 5 pounds...BTW you are shaped beautifully...you looked very feminine and pretty before your weight loss...

    It looks like you're right near the 200 line...I know how frustrating lingering above that is! I had a slight gain over the past couple of weeks too. Just keep doing what you've been doing, and you'll keep losing. Congrats on the 25 lost, and I'm sure you'll be posting more success stories in the near future!
