I'm the same way - I've been under 1300 cals a day and exercising 6 days a week and it's taken me 5 weeks to lose 1 pound!!!! I think our bodies decide when they are going to 'release' and let go of the weight. I try not to get discouraged, but it's not easy..... I keep consoling myself and telling myself that if I keep at…

I wasn't in the previous challenges, but I'd like to join this one. I'm feeling a bit frustrated because I've been logging in and working out for 5 weeks and my scale hasn't moved...

Well said! I too am guilty of not scheduling my workout and find myself prioritizing all wrong --- taking care of others before taking care of myself.... which is really a recipe for disaster because if I don't take care of myself, how can I take care of others? Time to pull out the daytimer and start my lists and schedule…

Yes, 1200 is a low goal but is pretty easy for me. I never feel hungry and do have lots of energy. My body doesn't seem to need that much.... I do eat back my exercise calories -- I know how important that is for nutrition and health. I don't want a huge deficit in vitamins, etc. I also take note of the nutrition panel on…
