    Unhgoose and Kate...
    I am up in weight too. Discouraging. Ate perfectly I thought for 8 out of past 9 days and up a pound.
    I am getting more exercise though... Y'all think that's what it is?
    I'm going to hang in there...

    Weight today 167 - lychee can you please put in for me? Thanks.

    Yeah, I think our bodies are working harder to heal the muscles since we've been exercising more. When it first happened to me this week (and believe me, I've been meticulous about dieting recently) I actually started another thread about it because I was so frustrated, but people say it's normal.community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10119729/help-started-exercising-now-gaining-weight#latest

    Happy Monday everyone!!

    I've realized all the discipline and good routine I maintain over the week goes down the drain when I end up eating unhealthy stuff especially on Friday and Saturday :( No self control whatsoever ... sigh. Need to get better at this. How do you guys stay on track over the weekends?

    I use my phone, so if the only way to join is a spreadsheet? I could use motivation. I will lose 10 lbs by Memorial Day.

    Me too!!

    You guys can just add your details here in the forum for motivation - shouldn't matter where the info is as long as it is helping you stay on track :)

    Weekends are the toughest for me too, am glad it's just two days, if I am very disciplined the other 5days,it tends to get me back, so sometimes I have my cheat meals on weekends. But because am on holiday all through the Easter week, I know I will be pigging a little so am working particularly hard even through the weekends to get to a comfortable weight b4 tornado Easter strikes :)

    I've been good about working out lately but I'm frustrated by my inability to stick to an eating plan. Everyday this week I've gone over. It's not terribly unhealthy stuff, and it hasn't been too crazy, but it definitely going to take me a lot longer to lose this weight if I don't get a little stricter with myself.

    I only weigh myself at the trainer and my schedule is super weird this month. Got on the scale yesterday, probably won't make it back there until 4/17.

    @snorklr - added and congrats on the loss :)

    Sorry for being MIA - was traveling and just got back. I gained about .8 pounds thanks to all the traveling and bloating :p But that's okay, I have been really good about my workouts and eating healthy for the past 2 days since I got back.

    How is everyone's week going?
