    Again, no change in weight. But, my clothes are fitting a tiny bit better. A few years ago, I went to the gym religiously 5-6 days a week, walked 7 days a week and really watched what I ate, losing only 4 lbs in 2 years. Having said that, I did go down 6 Jean sizes at that time. So, I will keep going and try not to give up. Frustration

    Starting late, but I'm definitely in! I've been working hard to build consistency in my workout routine and tracking, but now I just need to push things and keep from stalling.

    New here but would love to join this challenge. I would like to lose 40 lbs by Christmas, so that works out to about 5lbs a month! Started today tracking my food and exercise.

    Walked for an hour on the treadmill this morning watching Game of Thrones new episode. The kids were all at school so I indulged myself with a little t.v. time but at least I was walking during the entire episode. :)

    Don't give up !!! Slow and steady wins the race?? Are your clothes fitting better?? Sometimes scale does not reflect change in muscle building?

    It's hard to tell with clothes. I have the hardest time with my jeans. The ones I wear daily for work, seem a little looser. I put a pair on yesterday that I hadn't worn for a couple months, fit same as always. I can only hope, all the walking is truly helping and that it's just showing on the scale.

    Counting calories using the app has made all the difference for me (and my fitbit)!
