Anyone else stuck?

I seem to plateau the whole week I have my period! I know in my head that it's ok, because I'm doing everything right, but I still feel panic-y! Do you feel like July was ages ago? I can't hardly remember what eating was like before, Thank God! Take care! Kate J

It does seem like ages ago. The first time I began to drive myself crazy b/c of a stall I put my scale away. Now I just get on it when I happen to think about it or if I'm feeling lighter that day. My scale now has a home in a cabinet that I don't open regularly--out of sight, out of mind.

Hi Kate. July was a lifetime ago, wasn't it? We were different people then, that was before our RE-birthdays! I know what you mean about stalling the week of your cycle. I don't think it is just us feeling that panic. My daughter is on Weigh****chers for the last 8 weeks and averages loosing just right at 3 lbs a week (I am so proud of her!) except during that time. She is lucky to loose anything. Enjoy not having to wonder about the scale and measurements...no pressure that week!!! ~Diana

Yes July seems like a lifetime ago and then again just yesterday. I hit a stall at 216. I was this weight for many years and I had heard that this may happen. Hopefully, the scale will start moving again.

Yes, I am at a stall as well. I've been at 217-216 for a week now and I'm NOT struggling with my period. WHen I did end my period... I lost 6 lbs almost overnight, so don't sweat that. I weighed 220 for quite a few years and I think that's a plateau weight for my body. I'm fighting it though and once I break through that magic number, I'm confident I'll see the scale start going down again! I only weigh myself on Friday mornings... that's it. THe only exception was on my 2 month mark earlier this week and I wanted an official number for that date. THis keeps me from getting upset over a lb here and a lb there. I want to see 3-4 lbs (or more) at a time, so the weekly weighing is much better! I can't say I'm not tempted at times but I talk myself out of it. Good luck and hang in there!
