    Daisy, you seem to be getting discouraged. Try not to let a gain get you down. You can and will do this. If you want to indulge a little for your birthday you are entitled. Drink all your water, add in a work out, or switch up your current workout a bit to get you on the down swing again.

    I am concerned about you. The first step to giving up is self loathing after we do something we see as "wrong". You lost so much weight so quickly in the beginning and have been struggling since your vacation to take it back off. Life is going to have vacations, and parties all along the way. We need those things to get us through the rest of the crap. Once we have had the fun we may need to work a little harder to take it back off, but focus on how great you will feel when you do.

    Buck up little camper! :wink:

    Thanks so much, your right I'm feeling discuraged and a little helpless at the moment. I feel like I've made this life change(and so far I'm not tempted to stop which is the good thing right?) but I just wish my entire mood wasn't so affected by the scale. I know I'm doing welll and that it's not ment to fall off overnight but..... I don't know I just feel...... sad and a little helpless

    Okay well I'm back to my start weight after my TOM. I'm worried that I've hit the dreaded plateau phase. I've been exercising every day and have not gone over on calories, although I increased my calorie intake by a couple hundred so I lose these last 20 lbs a little slower and healthier. Not sure what to do at this point.


    Start Date July 15 Starting weight: 160
    Week 1 July 22 - 160
    Week 2 July 29 -162 (+ 2)

    Start Date July 15 Starting weight 189
    Week 1 July 22 188 (-1, -1.5in.)
    Week 2 July 29 188 ( no loss , but no gain

    Week 3 Aug 5, 187 (-1, no change in inches this week)

    I'm doing good with my 5x a week workingout. I feel so much better and getting up every morning is easy now, I'm not dragging my butt out of bed. Some mornings I even wake up just before the alarm.
    I wish more weight was coming off, but my clothes keep fitting looser. Not quite down a size yet, but it's coming. I know it is.
