    I was in a similar situation about a month ago -- good calorie intake and exercise, but the scale wouldn't move!

    For me, I cut starches (rice, potatoes, bread, pasta) and increased vegetable intake. I've been losing 2lbs a week steadily since again. Something like this could work for you to?

    I am in but joining late. My goal is to lose 15-20 lbs by Thanksgiving... I am a 32 year old mom of 4 with a hubby who is gone for work a month at a time so always made the excuse not enough time. Well school just started back up and I am going to do it this time. I. 5'7" and 290lbs hoping to hit 270-275 by Thanksgiving as that will put me back to my weight in highschool. Ultimate goal is 180.

    9 lbs down for this challenge! Just watching my calories... nothing fancy. I walk a mile or two every day and that's my only exercise. Just proof that it doesn't take too much effort to make things happen! :) Keep up the great work, everyone!

    I am also from South Florida and have been in evacuation. Haven't really been staying super active, but trying every now and then. I still hope to reach my goal weight by the end of the year somehow.
