    I really feel like I've been tracking correctly so I do not know why my weight went up, except that it may be water weight; however, I also can't think of anything that could have caused that kind of water retention. I have been eating a lot more fiber and perhaps, just perhaps, have gotten a little dehydrated while exercising in the heatwave this past week. But I can't believe either of those would lead to water retention. :-(

    Late but looking for some more motivation after a 2 yr hiatus from MFP. Been trying out the South Beach way of eating. Not following real strictly but it seems to be helping, plus tracking calories of course. Would love to add some new friends!

    July 26: 123.0 ugh so this isn’t going well. For the first time since my journey in January I’m at a stand still. I haven’t been doing any additional activity than my normal day thus far. I think it’s time to reintroduce more cardio into my plan. Started with a mile tonight. Hope to report better news on Friday. Happy for the rest of you!

    I’m battling some winter re-gain since I hit my low of 158 last summer. Still getting back in the groove, so as long as I keep tracking & working on my habits and the scale moves towards my goal, I’m happy. But dang it if I don’t want to hit this goal ASAP!
