Weight loss is the single most difficult thing to accomplish. Congratulations on your progress thus far. Keep fighting the good fight and, when you backslide, give yourself forgiveness and then move past it. Best to you!

But I plan on revving it up again this week! :D Thanks for the encouragement! Well, after the stomach bug the week before last, I was pretty slack this week — mainly with the exercising.

I'm in the same little boat only I just had a child. Funny thing though - although I've looked like I "had a baby" for at least the last 10 years, it is now a real excuse.

Hang in there and the weight will come off. Good luck at reaching your goal. Hey John,

I'm still hanging in there, still exercising and all. A friend of mine has lost 80 pounds in a year, and whenever I think it's not possible, I see her and know that it is. However, she's been stuck for a month, so I know there are obstacles all along the way. I just have to continue to develop my patience! :D Um, well, I’d rather not be in a coma to lose the weight.

But I'm afraid she doesn't offer much hope. Neither do the members of her TOPS club. They have been trying to lose weight for years. My wife says I should offer you encouragement . Okay I used to be 360 pounds and now I am 170. I hope that encourages you but of course I spent two months in a comma while losing that wait. But it is gone.

I realize that while the scale tried to say that I gained weight. My clothes didn't feel any tighter.

It is a much more accurate measure. Better yet use a skinfold body fat caliper to determine the amount of body fat. Unless you are clinically obese the scale isn't your friend when you are discarding fat. Kevin Go by the tale of the tape rather than your scale. It is a much more accurate measure.
