  • Congratulations on the 1/4 pound, could be a gain. Don't get discouraged. I have had up, downs and plateaus. But I don't stop exercising, eating right and may never get to my target weight, but I assume you are a lot younger with a lot less medical issues (medication can affected outcome also).

  • It is difficult, but unfortunately it can be done but baby steps. I am in no way close to being a nutritionist but I have been on death's door with illness several times from cancer to heart condition to diabetes, but even though I didn't feel like doing anything, I forced myself as I had my family to think about but that…
