fatjon73: Its horrible how addictive they are. more horrible is the need for them. so you are off them completely now? if so, that's an accomplishment in itself. I've always been careful with pain killers. not a big fan of them unless absolutely required. so I hear ya :)

Oh, I didnt realize thats what 'open diary' meant. thanks Elizabeth! Yeah I am weight training 3 times a week and cardio 3 times within the same week. I didn't really measure myself, but the common theme i'm hearing is to just give it time. It's only week 2 after all :smile:

Paytra, yes, thats true. I didnt expect to see changes within the first month or two, but I certainly didnt expect to gain. You are right, it may be the water. Arditarose, I dont know what you mean about opening a diary. Thank you ladies for your response :).

Thanks for your response. I am doing 1200 calories a day. and yeah, using food scale.

Bubba, again, great tip. I didnt even think of that "the less I weigh the more calories I burn" you are right, its a great motivator. I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for your post and let me know how you are doing as you progress. that itself will be amazing motivation to hear a fellow MFP is making traction :)

Matt, thanks. I actually dont own a scale, but you are bang on the with exercising patience part. It takes a good 2 months for it to sort of show a little I guess is what I was told. So day 13...and trudging along. Thanks for the welcome and best of luck to you too :)
