Today is day 14 and I am 10 lbs down!!! I know most of the loss if from water weight, but it is still nice to see the number on the scale go down.

I started MFP around February of 2008. I lost 7 lbs the first week, then only 3 lbs for the following 3-4 months. Out of frustration I gave up. As a result, I not only gained back the 10 lbs I lost, but an additional 10 lbs as well. Today I am exactly where I started a year ago. This time I am determined to not give up no matter how frustrated I get. I will lose weight.

So for those of you who feel like giving up because the number on the scale isn't moving, DON'T. I did, and look where it got me....
