I am not at all happy this morning.  I woke up to 106 lbs. on the scale.  This is after eating really well for a number of days.  I would have expected the scale to have a major drop by now, but it is not happening.  I am starting to journal my calories today.

Hang tough Elina, I'm sure this is upsetting.  Are the hormone issues resolved?  How about salt?  But you know all this.  You'll get back to 103 before long.

Thank you Marie, yest the hormones are now resolved and the salt is fine.  The weight does not want to go down for now.  I am resolved to keep working on it.  I am sticking to a good eating program and I hope to see some results soon, but it seems to me that it's getting harder and harder to just drop those few pounds.  I have been talking to a few people that are further out and they too feel there is something going on around the two year mark.  I wonder if this is a bit like the three week stall, something that is a bit universal.  It might not happen to everyone but it's common to find that around this time, weight loss gets harder.  I can't wait to hear from others.  I will just do what I know I need to do and trust by body to do its job.  Hopefully that's enough.

Mike, I find it hard to believe you weigh over 200 lbs!  Where the heck are you hiding it? Seriously, in person you look to be about 170 max!

As for me, I've lost a few pounds lately but not due to any effort on my part, I mean, I haven't even been tracking my food lately, but I weigh everyday. 

Today I've started tracking my food again to see what it is that is making me go down. I will say though that I was hydrating more than usual last week and lost 2 pounds in 2 days - so maybe that was it.

Later gators!

Alot of people tell me that. What would you think I would look like if I got down to the normal BMI range which is a 170 pounds.

Have to say I like you're new Avatar.

I'm sorry Mike, I personally feel you might look emaciated if you lost 30 more pounds. What some guys do is they start bulking up with muscle and then some of the weight is more muscle. In the blue bags from the expo there's a 1 week free pass at a gym on long beach rd., maybe they're worth checking out (if you don't already have a gym membership).

lol, I love my new avatar too!

Thanks, I'm fine where I am. I was being a bit facetious.

I have joined a Gym. And I do want to build my muscles as I feel that I could be stronger. I need to do some strength trainnig. It's just so damn hard making it there consistently. I've been so busy with work.
