    Well I gained a pound this past week. I weighed myself on Sunday and it was 282, Then I weighed myself again this morning and it was 284.4

    Oh well Going to have to keep working at it I guess.

    You had such a big weight loss last week, over 6 pounds, which is really fast, so your body may be trying to recover or self correct. And big fluctuations within a day or two like that are usually always due to water weight. Just stick to your regiment and I'm sure you'll come out lower for next week.

    Hey Kevin,

    I have 1780 Cals per day and I get about 500-600 Cals working out, I have been trying to have about 500 cals left over at night, so I probably eat my totals. thats only netting me a 1.+ loss a week so I am going to try and not eat as much and see if that helps

    GOODBY 250's :smile:

    Freerange,

    You're doing great buddy! 6 pounds down, you're over half way. Keep it up!

    What are you doing to help you be so successful?

    Exercise twice a day Mon-Fri, always under cal Mon-Fri, double up on exercise on Saturday, rest Sunday, and on the week ends I don't worry about cals so much, still watch what/.how much I eat just don't watch as close as I do during the week. So far its working (crossed fingers go here)

    Great Job Brent!! Busting through a plateau always feels good. I'm in the midst of a little one right now, still losing, but a little slower than I would like. What did you do to break the plateau?

    As it turns out, MFP automatically lowered my intake by 100 calories right after that first week. I had gone in and readjusted my exercise settings to more accurately reflect what I was doing. It seems to have done the trick :)

    Sure could use the help. My Feb goal is to become overweight (209lb)...I'm obese now(225 lbs)...love the labels...at least I'm not Morbid anymore.
    This morning I weighed in @ 218.6 lbs. (-6.4lbs). Not on schedule but at least in the right direction.
    Great to see everyone shedding this crap out of our lives.
