I find that I am exercising. Eating healthy and logging all my food but the scale continues to go up and down quite a bit. So frustrating!!! My clothes fit better and my muscle weight is up but still frustrating1

I can completely relate. This has been my struggle for years. I don't necessarily eat healthy. But, I do log everything. Always (almost) under my daily calorie goal. If you are building muscle, tho you may not see that change you want on the scale. I went to the gym 5-6 days a week for 2 yrs, I lost 4lbs...I don't work out near as much, now. But, I do walk 5-6 days a week.. The scale has barely moved. It is incredibly frustrating. I just keep plugin along and hope I will get there one day. Hang in there. You'll get there.0 -
May 23 - CW 190.6 down 1.6 lbs. I need to start being careful. I find myself starting to slip back into old habits. I can't give up yet! I won't!
May 16 - CW 192.2 down .2 lbs
May 9 - CW 192.4. Up .4 lbs. Slightly discouraged but realized I had a few set backs this week. I've come to the conclusion that I need to eat when I'm not feeling well physically. Not a good thing to do but something I need to work on.

Hello, everyone! Just wanted to add that I am actually slowly getting there. I myself am being surprised at times looking at my capability to control my cravings [I have a huuuuuge sweet tooth than you can imagine]. I'm really proud of myself. I shall log my stats on the 30th as it would mark a month since I started this healthy lifestyle thingy1 -

Weight is the same on the scale. I am noticing small changes in the way my clothing fits..... Maybe I need a new scale0
