first time in a while, my scales are telling the truth today!

multivitamins

Almost a month and still no movement on the scales. Some days it even goes up! BUT i can now see the difference in the mirror. My clothes are fitting better, and the workout clothes i was gonna have to slim down to fit, now fit! Scales be damned, you don't rule, you don't rock, and you certainly don't count!

Happens to me all the time...

It seems you got it a little wrong... if i could math away the calories of my food, i'd give it a try too :drinker:

I ate extra today, and i didn't do any exercise, in the hope of trickin my body out of this plateau... willing to try almost anything at this stage

I bought some green tea today, so i'll give that a try...:flowerforyou:

I have just this week increased my workout, i bought a treadmill! And each day i increase my distance run. I have added in ab crunches these last two days, and i do a little bit with the weights. Up until the beginning of this year I would have driven the car down the driveway to collect the mail!

Most days i'm trying to find food to increase my intake, if i only ate when i was hungry, i don't think i'd be eating much at all. I am in it for the long haul, i've done the diets where i've lost 7kgs in one week. Instant gratification (until you resume normal eating) and then bam its back, and it brought along another…

No, what are the benefits of green tea? I have seen slimming tea, but i don't know if its a 'weight loss gimmick'.

I've made my diary public if any1 wants to check, and advise....:ohwell:

Eat back those calories... Its hard to get your head around, but it does work....

I don't think any1 here will call you stupid! I struggle also with the idea of eating the calories i burn. Seems that i've had the wrong idea about how to lose weight, for as long as i've been trying to lose weight! But.... it seems to work. Everyone who is having success is doing it, and i am willing to give it a go. It…

Great info

DON'T GIVE UP!!! I don't know what yr BMR or any of those other numbers should be, but i don't think you should be starving yourself. And definitely not to the point of shaking.... stick with it, we are here for you!!!

REPROGRAM - I think that is going to be the key to my weight loss. My head is still stuck in "eat less weigh less".

My husband notices, or comments on it. I don't know if its noticeable, he always says what i need to hear.. Gotta love the man. No one else has said anything. I look in the mirror and see a change, but i dont really know if its different or am i seeing what i want to see. I will persevere though. I have a goal and nothing…

But how much under is ok? I am consistently under my calories almost everyday. I find it really hard to eat when i am not hungry. It really just seems counterproductive. I do eat nut snack bars (from the healthy food aisle) when i need to snack, but i dont want to be snacking at night time...

I log EVERYTHING i eat. Mostly to ensure i'm getting my vitamins and nutrients, but also to keep myself honest...

Good for you for keeping at it. I have only ever tried half heartedly, so this time its all new for me... Add me, i have no experience at weight loss, and could do with some friends on here....

totally!

goal 26% currently 5.63%

totally agree! Take a day off, you dont have to eat chips and chocolates, but you should be able to have a date night with yr hubby, then work it off over the week. Enjoy yrself!

Now I am really confused! You guys are eating more, and losing weight? I don't understand....
