    First week of August starting slow. Lot of late nights and late eating and no gym. But it's only 5 days into the month! I'm not defeated yet! Hoping for a bigger loss next week!

    It's technically been 1 1/2 weeks since my last weigh-in. Last week was terrible food wise and weight wise. Excited to see something came off today. I was trying hard not to lose motivation with the scale looking like it was moving in the wrong direction. Back in the game now.

    Wow...I worked out almost every night this week so far and watched what I have put into the mouth and STILL only lost .4. I just don't get it. It feels like I'm destined to not lose this weight. I refuse to give up...I just have to work harder....oh boy.

    This has happened my entire life...lose weight, gain it all back, plus more until I reached 311 (possibly heavier than that). I just didn't step on the scale to see it. I'm sick of it! The yo-yo has got to stop! I just have to figure out what's going to make it stop. Well...back at it!

    This happened to me last week, only I actually gained a lb. I honestly think I wasn't drinking enough water. Drank more this week, and I am seeing my numbers moving again.

    Sorry I haven't been very chatty on the boards lately. I've been trying to catch up and read when I can but with my hours at work and the stress being so extreme, I've basically been avoiding the computer as much as possible when off work! I have been keeping up with my daily logging though and actually, I've gotten more exercising in than normal just to get some aggression out due to the work stress!

    I had such a busy weekend! I work for an insurance carrier and our 2017 season is about to start in a few days. It's been crazy! I can't believe I even lost weight because I've been eating like crap!

    I'm not impressed with my results so far. It's my fault. I keep making excuses to not work out. I'm going back to nightly workouts because it's the only time I can do it.

    Okay...this is really beginning to get to me. I don't know what's going on. I have really been trying to lose anything, but .2 was not what I had in mind. Although it is a loss, for the amount of work I have put into it, it just isn't what I had hoped for.

    Not saying I had hoped for a big loss, but 2 pounds would have been sweet...guess I will have to settle for the less than 1 pound loss for the month. My body sure feels like I am trying to hurt it though. Guess that's just one more thing I have to talk to my doctor about.
