I check my weight every morning. I know some people freak out if they do that but it works really well for me. I won't post about it everyday but a few times a week for sure. I am starting here at 270 pounds. That is actually 20 down from my highest weight. It also seems to be a bit of a roadblock for me this past year, I go up and down but hardly ever below it. So that is my goal now, to get below the 270. I am actually trying to give a big push over the same time span as my walking goal, now til Labour Day. I am hoping to lose 2 pounds a week but time will tell how well I do. starting weight = 270

I've now been stuck on a plateau (195-205 ish up and down since October). I am hoping to get back to the 2 lbs a week too. So we will definitely be in this together! I think your walking goal will help getting you off to a good start!

For a long time I weighed everyday but when that started stressing and depressing me (I'm a slow loser) I moved to weekly and even monthly. Right now I'm doing weekly, but I suspect I'll change it up now and then.

Welcome to the site lois, we are so happy to see you here! You have done so well thus far to already lose 20lbs...great job! I know it is hard and frustrating to get beyond a plateau. I was stuck around 220-244lbs for about a year...but then i gained back some pounds and i'm now sitting at a higher weight....so don't despair..consistency and persistence is the key. Best of luck!

Newbie Posts: 58 Group: Friend Member #145 Joined: May 3, 2008	Hi, sorry I haven't been here for a while, just got sidetracked from the site but staying on track. Actually last week was just torture for trying to stay on track, but I survived. Now calories were over almost everyday last week but I did get in my walking goal so that was good. This week is much better and from my last weigh-in report here I have lost another pound. Now down to 267!!

Newbie Posts: 58 Group: Friend Member #145 Joined: May 3, 2008	thanks happy and shy. Right now I am struggling to keep it down to 263.5, but I guess that is normal when you hit a new low. But I am going to get alot more time to myself this next week so am figuring I can focus a little more.
