    Ha ha ha! This is the stuff of sitcoms. Frustrating, but pretty funny. And congrats on your 1-pound loss. Do you feel any different yet? A tiny bit lighter, stronger, more energetic, more flexible? It was these types of physical changes that motivated me early on. It won't be long before you're feeling different, if you don't already.

    Keep calorie intake constant

    gradually increase movement , stand up for longer , do resistance training

    this will increase your deficit

    don't drop calories

    Agreed. Keep in mind that once you've lost some weight and taken some pressure off your joints, you'll be able to start exercising and shedding more weight. But for now, the dieting part is going to be the most important.


    How are you tracking your calories? Are you weighing everything with a good scale??

    Yes...the body sure aches with extra weight on..I have 100-125 to lose. My feet and knees ache a lot. I try to do things that help with inflammation. Ice the joints...stretch...every 5 lbs you lose will be 15lbs of impact off your joints. You can do this. Be gentle with yourself and just focus on the food part right now and logging it in. Stretch...ice swollen joints throughout the day....as you lose weight...you can pick up walking a bit...

    just to say, I think you've done great so far. I understand you are eager to see the scales drop, but 10lbs is nothing to be disappointed about. You've got this, and all these people rooting for you!
