    I've been eating at a deficit and exercising regularly, for the past week, but my body has decided to hold on to every gram. The important thing is that the way is down, and so long as I stay consistent, I'm sure the weight will come off eventually. Maybe I won't hit my goal for the month exactly, but any loss is a gain at this point. Taking better care of my body is making me feel so much better overall, that I should be happy with that alone :)

    Stick to the slow and steady. You'll win the competition because at some point he will realize his approach is unsustainable. He will either quit or he will take your example and discover a good calorie balance that will cause weight loss and not loss of all energy.

    Great result this week. I’ve been sticking with my plan but haven’t seen much change on the scales - now it’s suddenly dropped without changing my eating habits 👍🏻. I assume I was retaining water or something 🤪
    @bekijayne1 - it's known around MFP as "The Whoosh" - the mysterious loss of pounds off the scale seemingly overnight when all else remains the same. There is even an entire thread about this: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10522791/the-whoosh/p1

    I weighed in at 82,9kg (182.8lbs) for a couple of days there, but I'm guessing water weight is a given when approaching my time of the month, so no worries there. I'm pretty anxious about my teeth right now (I'm pretty sure I'll be losing a molar today) but I'll deal with it if if comes to that. Though if it's absolutely necessary, I see a lot of smoothies, soups and oatmeal in my immediate future :D

    Thanks for the support! I guess I was lost this past week as I am just signing in today and seeing this. I have been floundering the last couple of months and need to realize the support is here!
