Down 2 pounds! (Now at 172) Finally, a little progress. After watching the Paul McKenna show last night (TLC--"I Can Make You Thin") I hope I will be able to curb my cravings for junk food--chocolate and sugar two big problems for me!
Having this group for support and encouragement is going to be a great help for all of us.

Shorts, not to mention the dreaded bathing suit (which I absolutely hate putting on!!) . I am not only doing this so that I will be comfortable wearing these, but also to help some medical conditions. So hopefully the support I find here will be better than the non-support I get at my house! I was hoping for some clearing skies and a little warmer temp today so I could get outside and go for a walk with the kids.

Frequently Asked Questions
What could be the reasons for not losing weight this week?
There are several factors that could contribute to not losing weight in a given week, such as water retention, hormonal changes, muscle gain, or fluctuations in diet. It's important to remember that weight loss is not always linear and can vary from week to week.
Should I change my diet if I didn't lose weight this week?
Before making any drastic changes to your diet, consider evaluating your overall eating habits and exercise routine. If you’ve been consistent, it may be beneficial to give it another week or two before making significant adjustments.
Is it normal to have weeks without weight loss?
Yes, it is completely normal to experience weeks without weight loss. Many people encounter plateaus or periods where their weight remains stable despite their efforts. Staying consistent with healthy habits is key during these times.
How can I stay motivated despite not losing weight?
Focus on non-scale victories such as improved energy levels, better mood, or increased strength. Setting small, achievable goals and tracking your progress in different ways can help maintain motivation even when the scale doesn’t reflect your efforts.
What should I do if I feel discouraged about my weight loss journey?
It’s important to acknowledge your feelings and understand that setbacks are part of the process. Consider reaching out for support from friends, family, or a community group. Remember to celebrate your progress and stay committed to your long-term goals.
