Hi, Abbie! I'm sorry to hear that you're having such a hard time loosing. Have you taken your measurements to see what you've lost in inches? I've read on this MB that oftentimes we are loosing inches even if we aren't loosing wt. It's never too late to take those measurements!
I've gotten off track and have gained a pound!
That's not cool...Hang in there...I'm thinking about trying the 5 day pouch test and see if that can kick start me! Take care, thinking of you....Jean

Mornin' All! I gained 1lb last week!
Have to get back on track!!! Still...I have to remember that I've lost 91.2lbs in six months. Maybe I'll check out the 5 day pouch test??? Have a good week! Jean

Down 7 pounds since last week, but that was with my TOM, the flu and pnuemonia!! I don't think I like suffering that way to get it off, but I'll take what I can get. This month has been really SLOW!!!

Finally broke my stall!! I not only cut back on my carbs, but I upped my calories a little and that seemed to do the trick. My body is liking that.
I took out my ring today, so TOM will arrive sometime today or tomorrow. I don't think I'll lose this well next week, but as long as it is not a gain, I'll be happy!

Topic: RE: 5 Day Pouch Test FINAL RESULTS!!!
I wasn't really prepared with food for days 4 and 5. I did my best with the groceries I had. But still, I felt a renewed tightness in the pouch that I really liked and I don't snack at all anymore.
I think I may have lost about five pounds, but I'm having female issues that make the scale go up-and-down. (I started my 2nd period this month)
I think I'll try the five day pouch test again in a month when I can have everything planned out.
