    I'm down 6lb this week but it was my first week and I worked very hard.

    Fell off the wagon a bit today thanks to the weather but will be back on it tomorrow and hope for another couple of lb this week. Half term is always tricky though so might need a kick up the bum by Tuesday to keep it going :-(

    Some of the things I have noticed in my short 3 weeks are:
    -it is more expensive to eat well
    -it is more time consuming to eat well
    -losing weight is time consuming with finding time for the gym, planning meals, shopping differently, etc
    -it is all about focus. You can have all the support in the world (and there is lots on here...thanks!) but if you are not self focused it will not happen
    -one bad day does not ruin the effort
    -it is much easier to make bad decisions than good ones....

    Amen. I'm finding it's a sum of all decisions, not one decision which "ruins" all the work. And boy, it's easy to slide back into old habits, isn't it??? I'm trying to set things up so it's easy to make good decisions. Keep good things to snack on at work. Plenty of ways to make the day more active. Try to add vegetables to every meal.

    Congratulations on your family doing this together. My fiance is also being very supportive in my efforts, which makes all the difference.

    No weight loss for me..Visit from Tom does not help me. Pumping all my workouts and water intake. Congrats to those that are surpassing your goals!

    I lost 1.2lbs this week and to be honest I'm okay with that. I'm less than 30lbs from my goal (like 26) so I know the weight won't come off super fast and this was my first week getting back in to a heavy routine after two weeks of crazy life where I worked out bare minimum

    I am so embarassed ...
    I have not lost anything and have gained...
    What DO I DO???

    I don't know how long you've been working on weight-loss, but don't feel bad for not loosing any. One thing I've learned from reading blogs, trying other diets that I have not manage to keep up, and so on, is that you can't have weightloss Every week. Just keep doing what you're doing, maybe take an extra walk in the morning or evening if you really fell and have time for it.

    Maybe check "Eat more to weigh less" if they might have some ideas.

    Dont's feel bad. I gained 5 lbs. didn't do what I was suppose to do and have noone to blame but myself. Diet is 80% and exercise is 20%. And this week proved it. I did exercise but my diet was horroble. On that note I know what I have to do. And I'm just going to do it!!! And you can too. Just do what you need to do and put this week's weigh in behind you.

    That's OK...I gained too. But we're going to put this week's weigh in behind us and just do what we have to do. We know what we did and didn't do to get this gain. Today is a new day!!!

    Somehow I managed to gain .4 this week. :explode: Obviously I am not happy with that. I will be upping my exercise as best I can (I have a couple of physical injuries/limitations at the moment), though I don't think I can reduce my calories any further than the current 1200. I guess I will keep plodding along and hoping my body starts to understand what it is supposed to do.
