I was in the same boat! I was pretty frustrated but kept at it. I was happy to see at about the 6 week mark I'd lost 8 pounds but by week 8 I'd lost THREE! inches off my hips. Slow and steady wins the race. Just keep at it. You can do it!

Are you pmsing? I gain about 8lbs for 1 week each month like clockwork. I've learned to just ignore that week for now while trying to up my water intake and lower how much salt i consume... i'm trying to reduce the water retention but have not had any luck yet.
