    This is my weight from Biggest Loser on Tuesday morning of last week.

    287. I lost 4 lbs with them in one week.

    Next week I will post on Friday and do my measurements then. We do measurements every other week on that challenge so it will be time for me to do them.

    I have some advice: what is your daily calorie alottment? let's say its 1500, try breaking it up. Do 1400 one day, then 1800, then 1300, etc. Average out the week to 1500cals a day, but purposely eat a different amount each day. It may trick your body into weight loss. Something else you could try is taking a couple days off. Don't go nuts or anything, but don't count. Or go out for a nice dinner and don't look at the calorie count. The extra calories may jump start your weight-loss. good luck, you mostly just have to hang in there, it'll happen
