    I know im maybe jumping the gun and rome wasnt built in a day ect but tomorrow is going to be day 10 of my diet and i have managed 5 days this week of exercise and i havent lost any weight whats so ever! Its getting me down and im at that point in mind thinking 'whats the point' just a tiny wee pound off the scale would get my back motivated... Is that too hard to ask!

    It also depends on how much you have to lose. If you have a LOT to lose, which your picture does not lead me to believe, it's going to be harder. You need to be diligent about calories and logging. Weight loss is 80% dietary. You can't outrun a cookie...

    This. It will be slow to most peoples' minds, and slower when you have less to lose.

    I started MFP morbidly obese, with 100 lb to lose and even I lost only about 2 lb the first week.

    I have lost over 90 lb using this website and I've never lost more than 6 lb in 1 month - even at the beginning. Since getting into the overweight and healthy weight ranges I lose on average 1 lb per month.

    Patience is key!!

    Do not get discouraged. I am losing 1 to 1.5 lbs/week. I gained at about the same rate. MFP is a great tool if you use it and are honest.

    Do you have a food scale?
    Weigh and log everything you eat!!!

    Even if she weighs everything she's still eating too little. BTW I normally charge money for running numbers but you got it for free.
