Ive lost it
My motivation that is. I haven't blown it diet wise but I have been eating at maintenance for the last few days. Also because of a pulled muscle and a few illnesses I haven't been at the gym as often as I should have been. How do I get my motivation back. Will eating at maintenance for a few weeks be a bad thing?

is this normal for everyone or just me
When i started losing weight i could stand on the scales and every day see them go down maybe only by 0.2lb but they went down.

Most of my weight seems to have came off my shoulder area, i have dropped…

advice needed regarding water and exercise
Last week i put on 1lb, after reading on here i believe tgat was probably just water weight as i had ate under my calorie goal everyday. Last week i also burned around 500 cals per day (mfp calculations so probably bit less) but i did not eat all these cals back. I also never drank as much water as i probably should have.…
