I guess sometimes it takes a man...

to point out the completely obvious. I was walking on my treadmill this morning while my husband ate his oatmeal and watched. I was bi%$#ing about how I haven't lost weight in a week again. I totally over-analyze things and wonder if I should adjust my calories again, or if my new running schedule is causing a problem. He sat quietly and listened to me rant, and then he said "Don't you realize that you have an 8 day stall every single month around your period, then the scale moves again." DUH I did not realize that. But he's right. Every month since surgery that has happened. I'm now calm again, and hoping I will follow my pattern and drop again next week.

Gotta love that man!
Sometimes we are just too focused on the situation to see the big picture.
Hope that resolves a little stress and frustration.
Congrats again! You have done a great job!

That's funny!  That's the TOM when I lost my weight... I'd drop 4-5 lbs every month when I got my period - was definitely something to look forward too!! LOL.

I am so OCD and so routine with everything in my life. I schedule everything, make tons of lists, etc. You would think I could find a trend in something like that!

LOL!!  You are so right probably - I forgot about them keeping up with that since I've been through the change and don't have to worry about it.
