  • Hi Laura! Good luck for your weight loss, you'll find heaps of support and encouragement here!
  • It is discouraging when the scales don't go down and you are working so hard ... You might find that you've hit a plateau, and it will start coming down again soon. Are you working out at a gym?

  • It does make sense... I think most of us here will have felt that way at one time or another.

  • I know just what you mean! I'm worried I might have trouble conceiving and with the pregnancy if I don't lose a little bit beforehand too. Good luck with your weight loss!!
