Topic: Just checking to see how everyone is doing.
I am down 2 pounds this week. I don't know how because I had gall bladder surgery last week and I have not been working out. Maybe the stones weighed 2 pounds. LOL
I know we are all at a point where we are frustrated. We all have to keep our chin up. We have all done a great job of getting our weights down and becoming more healthy.
Now I am only 3 pounds from goal. Hopefully I can kick it into gear and hit that before to long.

aaaw thanks everyone for your very kind comments!
Hey Stitch! Love the new pic!! 
AWWWWWWWWWWWWW Toots you are toooo cute! ty Topic: RE: Im Done!!!!!!
Hi everyone!! Sounds like we are all experiencing similar situations.
I haven't lost a pound since the end of December, 2005.
But I'm not giving up and don't you!! I still want to lose at least another 20 pounds, but my doctor did tell me that after the first 13-14 months it becomes very difficult. I'm only 5 feet tall and so I do not have the luxury of carrying extra weight like someone who is taller.
But we have all come to far to give up now!!! As for myself, I started at 261 pounds and am now 148 pounds. I'm having a TT on March 6, and I'm hoping to lose at least 10 pounds. For me this was the final step in completing my journey.
Let's all support each other and think positive!!! 
Love and aloha,

I feel you! I have been at the same weight give or take a few pounds since december. I also feel like old habits are trying to creep in. I try and take one day at a time, and do what we were told, and try to keep the scale moving again. I still have 38 more lbs to go to get to goal. I think the water thing is important. I too have not been very good at drinking water because it tastes yucky. I will drink flavored water though and it is okay. Don't give up. It will happen. I am glad that we are no alone in this journey, and it seems like what we are going through is normal. Good luck and stay positive!

Stacy, We had surgery the same day, I can relate to what you are saying. I stopped losing from October until last week. I finally lost 8 lbs. I think our bodies get comfortable at a certain weight. I tried everything and then finally I thought "Oh He...." I guess I am done. Low and behold I finally lost again. And so will you!

I think a lot of us are actually going through this. I have been between 160 and 154 since December. I know that as time goes by it is getting harder to eat right with my schedule and with everything going on. I am down to 154 now and I am only 4 pounds from goal. It is very frustrating because I really want to hit my goal.
I try to get in a lot of protein daily and lots of water. I drink propel water, and lipton decaf iced tea. I usually buy the bags at the store and make the jug of it. If I am higer than normal I try to eat more fruits and veggies too. Just back to the basics of what we learned.
Hope that helps.

But I am not going to quit and I am not going to let you quit . I know that the water is a plus, if you can have plain try with some flavor ( I can't plain water)Cristal light or lipton I ce tea ( they have now the sugar free) Iam 5'5 start at 265 and bouncing btw 165 and 170 for 3 months. I go to the gym everyday and still the same. But like I said before I m not going to quit. maybe you need to eat a little more, ( that I was my DR told me to do)

I hit a wall. Thought I was all alone. If standing on my head would help, I would do it. No words of wisdom here, just floating with you in the same boat. A big hug from me!

I tried everything including excercise and no weight or size down for a month. Started at size eighteen and now at size 9. 255 start and now 180. I eat more, I eat less, I take in more protein and my only thing is I cant get the water down. Please help me get off the fence cuz I am hopeless. Huggs to all, Hopeless stacy
