I don't think you need to lose weight. You look just fine the way you are.

I've read some where that taking the bad carbs out of your diet gets rid of the stomach fat. I certainly wouldn't eat less calories.

Same thing happened to me. After 3 weeks I finally started losing. I can actually feel a difference in my clothes. Only weigh yourself once a week or every 2 weeks. Otherwise you are going to drive yourself batty. HAHA

HI! Thank you for posting your story. My weight has been yo-yoing for the past 10 yrs. This time I am keeping it off for good when I get down to my goal.

If your body thinks it's not getting enough, it will store fat. Not to mention its not used to the new eating habits and it could do the same.....store fat. I always seem to gain before I lose. I didn't this time, it took a bit to lose 2 pounds. I'm sure hormones can be a factor or too much salt. OR You could be gaining…

Dust yourself off and get back up. I've had some bad days too. Do or listen to something to treat yourself and make you feel good. Turn on some up beat music, Watch a funny movie.... paint your nails....whatever. Its normal to slip a couple of times while climbing that mountain. The whole time I was on the eliptical…

Yay! You look great! :)

I plan on increasing my workout eventually. I didn't want to jump in feet first and hurt myself and end up quitting. That is usually what happens. I have some weak areas I want to strengthen before I really get into it.

I didn't think about the sodium and carbs. If i eat frozen dinners, its the lean cuisines or healthy choice. I've had blood work done. Its all good.

Thanks everyone for your replies. YES I am be honest on my diary. I record everything! I eat fruits and veggies. Lean meats, I don't use measuring cups. But i worked in a kitchen, i know about what a cup of something looks like. I do drink lots of water. close to 2 liters a day. That is something I have always done. I was…

I was working out for 1 hour, this week I have to cut it back to walking for 30 minutes only. I'm working my way up to walking longer.

Nope, I have not. I don't log my exercise in daily. So I am going strictly by the 1200 calories I am supposed to eat.

I'm 5'2 and 155, my daily calorie in take is 1200. I have to say I feel like I am starving to death

Mine were small until I had kids and gained weight. Last time I lost weight, they stayed the same size. I think everyone has different body types and people will lose in areas that others do not.

Take mirlax, follow directions. I'm sure changing your diet has changed your BM. It does help drinking hot tea or coffee in the morning.

Nope, you just need the wii remote....and of course your wii game console. :)

Yoga is low impact and is great for strenghtening. Zumba is fun and I just did Just Dance 2 on the wii tonight. WOW It was harder than I thought and it is great exercise.

HAHA I love the title! I can't use the prenancy baby fat anymore. My kids are 18 and almost 16 now. LOL My weight has yo yo'ed over the years. 3 yrs ago I was thin......not so much anymore. So here I am!
