No Weight loss for almost 3 weeks but huge NSV for me !!
I have been in a funk with weight loss lately . I have been at 298 for three weeks now
I sat there and cussed that scale today it felt so good to do that while I cried lol.
Anyway , my hubby three yrs ago bought me a Steeler jacket I wanted that jacket so bad I didn't care if it didn't zip up I wanted that coat so I would wear it without zipping it up .
Well when we went to games when it was extremely cold I could never wear the jacket because I would freeze.
yesterday I put that coat on and I got it zipped !!!!! I came out and showed my husband and we both had tears in our eyes.
I have never ever in three yrs been able to zip that damn Steeler coat up and I did it and with a little room to spare and it even went down over my hips !!!!
I will be able to wear my Steeler coat to games this yr even when its cold now .
I'm so happy !!!

Thank you for sharing this today. I really needed to read something positive that relates to what we are all trying to do...support each other while we lose weight and conquer obesity!
I'm so happy for your excellent moment!
Next year you won't be able to wear it becuase it will be just too dang big!

Congrats on your huge NSV! Are you measuring yourself for the times when the scale is not behaving? I'm so happy for you. This journey is more than just the silly number on the scale.

I am Kristie , I have went down some in my thighs and in my hips .
It's funny when we are not trying to lose weight we could care less about them scales and then when we are trying to lose weight we become obsessed with them *sigh*.
I will just have to play the wait game on my body I guess cant cut my calories no lower that is for sure hopefully the scales will move again soon :o)
Jolena, I'm right there with you its very frustrating especially when you are doing what you are suppose to be doing .
And I think I'm not helping matters either :o( It's starting to get warm here and I have been so busy the last week working at my camper planting flowers, mowing the yard and just doing summer things .
Well, I get so busy up there I dont eat I can go up to 12 hrs of not eating and I know that isn't good since we are limited on calories anyways .
I think on Monday I was lucky to get in 500 calories for the day . I ate breakfast at 9 and didn't eat again till almost 9 pm that night and it was just a cheeseburger cause I was so dang tired.
I haven't had 1000 calories all week I'm only getting in around 600-900 .
I do this every summer I just dont eat especially in the summer because its so hot .
I do need to work on this maybe that is why I'm stalling I'm just not eating but then again I'm not hungry either :o(
And water retention on my goodness in the summer time I hang onto water so bad its not even funny !!! Especially when we go camping I can drink and drink up there and nothing .
