  • Well, apparently I am losing in a totally different way this time. I used to lose 1-2 lbs a week.... this time it seems like nothing for a week or 2 and then suddenly a 4-5 lb weight loss. So weird. But I lost another 4.5, so I'll take it.

  • Thank you. My activity level is about the same. I work as an activities assistant, so run an exercise program 5 x week, (It involves a lot of stretching, bending and chasing) and I walk 5-7 miles a day at work for my job, often hurrying---Always hurrying (I can't say no to a residents needs, so have to make it to another…

  • Well, It's been 2 months logging here, but another month before. I exercise and eat a healthy 1300 calories as well as drinking a gallon of water daily. I thought having expectations of 1.5-2 lbs a week in the beginning was realistic, as I have 80 lbs to lose. I understand that as I get closer to a goal weight it would be…
  • Thank you all for your insight. I guess I am remembering how quickly I lost 10 years ago.... I was younger. I am exercising, I just don't eat my exercise calories. I weigh and measure EVERYTHING! My husband has lost 30 lbs in the same amount of time... I know men lose faster, but gosh, he's catching up to my weight and…
