Crazy bouncing around...

I also have only lost a few lbs for this month. My 6 months will be up Wed. I am frustrated this morning because all weekend I weighed 172.2 and today when I got on the scale it said 175.0 again. What's up with that?????? It is about time for my period but still..................... Even at the 172 that is only a loss of about 5 lbs for the month. Very dissapointed. I must be honest and say I do snack and can eat about anything I want and maybe more larger amounts than most. My DH says I'm still doing good and I look good, but you know us. I want the scales to move! Oh, and I do exercise at Curves. Just sharing and venting a bit. Congrats to all on their 6 month successes! Gianna 244/172/120ish

Gianna, I feel your frustration. I've been bouncing again between 205 and 208 the last week or so. It is annoying, but this seems to be something that my body does. We've all slowed down alot. Think I've lost like 5 1/2 lbs this month....so you're not alone. You're doing great....Keep it up Tammy 291/284/205/145

Me too Me too... I have been around 170 for all of Feb and part of Jan...so don't feel like your alone. Just this week the scale finally dropped below 170 to 168! I was so thrilled but then it jumped back up to 170.... I haven't been able to hit the treadmill for the last 2 months due to pain in my right side from a mass on my overy.... Just hang in there and keep doing what your doing and it will start to come off again. I think it just slows down the closer to goal that we get. Susie

Hey Gianna: Dont trip too much on the numbers. I have been stuck at 170-169 for the last few weeks and it was starting to drive me wild. Then I thought to myself, well I hadnt really busted my buns to change anything... ie walking more, drinking more water...etc. So I can do more, but haven't. Then I check the site for all my fellow August sisters an see that some have really dropped since the surgery, but weighed much more than I had started with - and I am so happy for them!! And those who more or less started at my weight are around the same loss... so I guess Im right on track. I try to eat right and drink water as much as Im able. My hair was falling off for about a month and stopped after I had increased my protien and water... so it could be worse. Im just grateful for the surgery and the fact I am able to bend down without feeling like I cant breath!!! Ciao- Dorise
