Hi guys,

First I was up 0.2 on Monday...and now today I'm up 0.4. I'm burning well so EU for Friday. Not sure what the deal is. Must be retaining water or something. It is a bit disappointing, though, when almost a week has gone by and instead of losing I'm gaining! Oh well, I still figure I'm at one of my major set points and my body is fighting to keep me there, lol. We'll see how Friday goes.

After a really bad weekend I think I am making up ground. I was down 1.6 today from Friday. Monday I missed my weigh in. I have gone back to what I was eating in the beginning. No ketones yet but I didn't expect any.

I'm down 1.8 since Monday, which is good because I was up .2 after the weekend.  I'm under 220, haven't seen that in over 7 years!!!

FINALLY down more than 0.2 this WI!!!! YAY! Down 3.0 pounds since Monday.

Also... I had my Dr's appointment today, just to check up, and he noted that I have ONLY lost 23.2 pounds in 5 weeks. The tone in his voice indicated that I have not been doing as well as I should and this is the second time that he has done this with me. Anyone else experienced it? I made sure to let him know that I am thrilled with my progress thus far... who is he to imply that I haven't been doing a good enough job?!

I think you are doing Fabulous, I have had some speed bumps myself but am very proud because I know that by now I would have given up on any other attempt before now.
 Maybe it's because (sigh) he's a man and it is physically easier for them without all the hormonal ups and downs we battle.  :bangin:

I am down 1 lb since Monday and as I was down 3 lbs on Monday, I'm thrilled! I'm getting very close to the 40's which will be a big milestone for me. Yeahhhhhh

Kate, my doctor is way more supportive. Your loss is more than 4.5 lbs a week! What is he thinking? I have been losing 3-4 lbs a week and my doctor has been very congratulatory.

I'm hoping I don't have a wee gain on Friday as when I have had some good losses that seems to happen with me. I'll try and drink lots of water and be extra careful with the sodium so I don't go into the weekend with a gain. Thats always discouraging. Well congrats to all the losers and to those who haven't hang in there, your turn will come.

Down 1.8 since Monday and thrilled

Kate, my doctor also was not happy and thought I should be losing more but I was not even close to your 4.5 per week! I have lost 13.2lb in 5 weeks so you have doubled my loss, congratulations!!!

Down a mere 1/2 lb... sigh.  On a totally different topic (and I know this forum probably isn't the place but what the heck...) I want to take this opportunity to say "congrats" to our American neighbours :unclesam: for making history yesterday!  Way to go!  :thumbs:

I am down 2 lbs since Monday and very happy!  Congrats to everyone else as well and Kate don't worry about your doctor.  I don't even think the doctor at my clinic knows anything about the program...he orginally told me not to take Calcuim and/or Omega 3,6,9 and the nurses set me straight...hopefully you have at least one "knowledgable" nurse in your clinic you can rely on!
