I'm sure you did but did you weigh yourself at the same time of day? Or it could have been something you ate that was maybe higher in sodium. It could be a number of factors. You have the right mindset though. As long as the clothes are getting looser and you are doing what you are supposed to be doing, it will work out in the end.

Exact same thing just happened to me... I was all excited that I was 307 a couple days ago, but just now I weighed in at 308.8!! It pisses me off because I have been doing everything right! One of my friends is a personal trainer at the gym I go to though, so she took all my measurements last night and said we'll check them again on April 30th, she swears that will be more inspiring than the scale - So maybe give that a try too!!

Wow thank you so much for the kind words. The support and understanding of someone else is just what I need sometimes to verify that it can happen and I need to move on ...not dwell on it, because that never is a GOOD thing! lol! Just went for a walk and did the bike after, keep on going....Thanks again.

Well, I am down to about 323 now, fortunately I think i am passed the 325 plateau, it didn't last as long as in the past where i would be stuck there for months. I believe I am the least I have ever weighed currently. Though I must say getting below the 300 mark will be quite a day and I hope to get there before too long. Don't get me wrong the 300 club is great just not what it requires to be a member ^-^

Great job at getting past your plateau. I too am looking forward to getting out of this club and hope to see all of you in the 200 club. Hopefully April is my last month

I am 321 today down again a couple pounds. I started working out at the gym doing about an hour of jogging in the morning after work. Keep my heart rate in the 175-195 range during the entire work out.

I have been consuming about 1,000 calories a day and I know its too few but Oddly enough I have been having issues reaching enough calories since when I started working out my appetite nearly went away completely. While the food still tastes good I have no desire for it. Now I only hope once I adjust to the exercise this doesn't change as I know it probably will.

Having to try and eat enough calories is much better than trying to eat fewer....

Hi everybody.

I'm just starting out here, at 311. Hope to get some inspiration here (and who knows, maybe spread a litle too).

okay, after having all the weighing scale issues, a few weeks ago, and finally having bought mine, i can say i'm down from 350pounds to 339pounds today...yipee! hopefully will be seeing the 320's soon.

it's a shame though, i've had a few slip up's here and there and when i calculate what i would have lost ideally it would put me in the low 320's. i really need to keep myself in check and make sure every day is a good day....why it has to be so difficult i just don't know.

otherwise hope everyones doing great xoxo

Great Job on the 11lbs lost so far, Keep up the good work. Do not look back at what you could have lost, look back on what you did lose. Glass half full kinda mentality. I used to look at it that way. I started this journey back in late June 2008. My goal was to be at about 260 by now. Well since I am still posting in the 300 club you know how well that went. I drifted away during the holidays and put back about half the weight I previously lost. The good news is that I am now back to the weight I was when I started drifting. I could look at it as what could have been but I decided to look at it as look what I have done so far. Puts me in a much happier mood and the happier I am the stronger my resolve gets.

hey vonbryt,
thanks for the encouragement! i'll do exactly what you've suggested to look at it as what i've lost so far instead of what i 'could' have lost because that would just drag me down. i wish you all the best as well in your weight loss journey xoxo

go guys go! i started at 330 this year, and now i am at 287 and dropping! keep it up guys!

Wow, that's great!

I hope to be leaving you all and dropping down to the 200 club soon - maybe even by next week if all goes well.

For some reason my body likes to plateau at 310. Frustrating but somewhat expected. I was hoping to be out of the 300 club by end of April. Doesn't look like that is going to happen until sometime in May.

okay, i don't mean to whine, but it's like last week i was a fat-burning machine and was on top of the world because i lost a whopping 10pounds! this week i've lost 1.8pounds (don't get me wrong because i'm glad its a loss), it's just that this week i've been busting my a$$ at the gym more than i was last week and eating even better and two days in a row weighed in at the same weight!

Anyway, there's still 3 days to go so hoping for a slightly greater loss. I guess you win some you loose some huh.

It's times like this when my mind starts playing tricks on me....if i keep seeing small readings there'll be a voice in my head telling me "go ahead and buy that chocolate fudge cake, afterall your barely loosing anything" , but i refuse to cave in not just yet anyway.......DAMN WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE SO HARD?

hey all,
i hope that all is well with everyone. today had a good day, today weighed in at 329 yippeee! i'm officially in the 320's and looking forward to going down to the 310's soon. WE CAN DO THIS!
