You are doing great Leeann. If you have done so, take all of your measurements now. It will surprise you that you will be losing inches and yet that darn scale won't budge.

You are doing incredibly well and appear to be adjusting to every new stage in your eating plan. Have you measured yet? I thought I'd wait until completing my first month then measure. I'm sure you have noticed a big difference. The scale has always been slow for me and, at least at this point in time, I don't care. If I'm doing what I should be doing - as you are, it is considered a success.
Great job and continued success!

Hey Lee-Ann!
Haven't been on in several days, thus the late reply.
You are doing great! We all lose at different rates. Some slower, and yes some faster, and I know we all wish we lost faster but you will get to were your going! As long as the scale keeps going down, you are doing all the right things, aside from stalls which are totally normal and not an indictation of eating the wrong things. Hang in there, I know its tough!
