    So frustrated to the point of tears. I have been stuck in the 207-204 range for soooo long. It seems I can only get down to 204.2 (which I did earlier this week) but I can't break past that! I'm am frustrated but I'm not giving up! I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!!

    BLloudy-Onederland is Onederful! Can't wait to join you there! No condemnation for "roller coaster"...be patient and continue to fight forward!

    DterMined2012- It's water weight! You will be fine....been there done that. When I learned how many calories you would have to actually eat above your TDEE to gain 1 pound in 1 week (3500) it helped me not to panic when I saw a fluctuation in the scale. That's 3500 above the amount of calories you burn in one week...not the deficit you set for weight loss. Definitely water weight! You'll be fine.

    Amy-Heck yeah! No gain is a victory. New week....Now Rock It!

    kcthatsme - loved the link. Having one of those days that I just want to poor hot fudge on top of...needed to be reminded of what it takes to be successful.

    luvinlife58-It is wonderful having a loss right before you travel or change your routine. Use it as motivation to PLAN instead of HOPE not to gain - You got this!

    RockyMtnJhawk - My prayers are with you and your family for speedy recovery for your baby!

    bcdpearce - happy for your father's recovery. It is funny about the number of calories we ate before vs. the volume of food we eat now with lower calories. I eat way more food now than before...just better choices.

    Kvonjohn- I understand your frustration but continue to put the Word on it! You can do all things through Christ that strengthens you. You are victorious! Act on it! Your future self will thank you for believing and not giving up no matter how challenging this journey.

    The easiest way I've found to keep track of my weigh ins is to copy the list of dates to a text file on my computer desktop. I then just open it and add the new weight and and copy it to the post. That way I don't have to try to remember prior weigh ins or find an old post.

    Poggy18 - Water challenge... Great going!

    SRPM - eating out + scale number not increasing = success!

    amcjunkin - birthday cake/cookies + weight loss = woo hoo!

    Audrine - Yay for not taking the whole summer off! :-)

    cmm7303 - Great new profile pic!

    mom2four - Thank you so much for your post. "I am surprised how much accountability and thoughtfulness this has brought to my health regimes. I've been exercising for several months and kinda watching what I eat but having put down these goals and shared them so honestly has been a bigger deal than I would have expected." That is exactly why I think long term challenges are sooo helpful for weight loss! You can definitely lose 4! And then 6, 8, etc... In fact, I was close to what you weigh, when I started. I was 181.2 and am now 135.6. Just focus on one lb at a time. Focus on one day of green numbers at a time. Focus on one exercise session at a time. Focus on drinking your water, one day at a time. You can do this! You are on your way!

    darzinger - Congrats on your follow through!

    NavyKnightAh13 - I hope you and your son get well soon! Good luck with your 5k!

    thurberj - Victory! Nice new profile pic also. :-)

    adm88 - I don't have a fitbit but I'm thinking about getting one.

    bcdpearce - Great job on not turning to food for comfort!

    Congrats to everyone who made it into the next decade!

    Ty!!!!!!!!! Yeah, went into the doctor, found out I did end up with his hand, foot, and mouth, so it isn't just limited to children, though according to the doctors, I'm a rare case that got it. To add to it, they changed my inhaler over because i was put on flovent 6 years ago, not albuterol like i was suppose to be, and now waiting grading from my professor on a project that was rather stressful for my management class. The great thing from last week: for the first time in my life, got a 90% on my graphing test from my basic algebra class (please don't make fun of me).
