Ugh! I did my weekly weigh-in last night, and I am stil 268.5! I lost 0 last week! I know it could be that I'm building muscle, but it can be so frustrating to work your tail off and get no result (as far as the numbers go!). Am I putting too much importance on the numbers? I have noticed a slight change in how my clothes fit...I guess that counts for something, huh?
Any-hoo, I'm just a bit bummed. I am proud of myself though for one thing. I went out with some friends yesterday and didn't cheat AT ALL! They got some ice cream...I got non-fat/low cal sorbet. The big thing was that we went to Olive Garden (I LOVE Italian food). I ate plenty of salad, got a low-fat meal (and was barely able to eat half of it), and got NO dessert (although everyone else did). So, at least I was able to display some self-control.
How is everyone doing? I hope everyone has a good week. Hopefully I'll see a change this week....maybe I should up my cardio(?) a little. We'll see!

I would suggest dropping the weights if you want to see results on the scale.I would also try walking and biking and maybe alittle crunches,leg lunges. I know it works for me. and plenty of rest, water. and see if that helps.
Hi Liz,
Hey, you said your cloths are fitting better, in my book that is a reward in it's self.
Liz, noticing changes in clothes really counts and counts for a lot. Don't get too fixed on the scale. While you're at it, why don't you take a couple of measurements so that even if you don't lose pounds but lose inches, then you know you're on the right track. And it does sound good when you say: I lost 4 inches off my butt LOL.
Keep going and congratulations on the super willpower!! You're a role model.
