Weigh in..

So Today was my official weigh in day and I went from 197.6 to 191. So I lost a total of 6.6 pounds. Im happy about the loss but will not be completely happy untill i beak out of the 190's. I have been stuck in the 190's so long that im scared I will never get out. Hopefully next week I can achieve this goal.

I weighed in at 266.8, so I'm 1.8 down.  Why am I so slow???

1.8 is great. They say that a healthy weight loss is 1 to 2 pounds a week. So you should be excited about your loss. I know that it is hard sometimes, I am like everyone else I want the weight off NOW.... But they say that if you take it off slowely it is more likely to stay off. And I did have a good week this weeek with a pretty big number for me, but I know that next week I most likely wont be having the same results.

Why be upset with slow?  .5 is good, anything more is gravy, as long as it's not muscle.  Trust me, you don't want to lose muscle, it will make the end point of your journey a whole other exercise in futility.... 

Be happy with it, Janina!

Hey Janina, that is great. Hey hun, its better than gaining. You are doing so good, just remember that!!!

It's a loss, and thats what counts! I think it's a great loss! You are doing fabulous, Janina! Don't let it discourage you!

A 1.8lb loss is excellent.  I really do believe that slow and steady wins the race - though right now I really have to believe that because I seem to be stuck in a stall!  I've heard that huge, fast losses can be hard on the body.

Wow, that is great!!! I am sure you will be below that 190 mark next week!!! Way to go!!

Congrats on the 6.6 lb loss.  That's fantastic!  Keep your eye on the prize and you'll be outta the 190s soon.

wow! thats terrific! You'll be in the 180's in no time!!
