Weighed in at 203.4 Monday.
Gained 0.6 lbs. This week.

I am still trying to lose weight safely and sensibly, but it does fluctuate up and down.

Highest morning weight was 209.2 on Aug 1, 2011
Goal weight is 154.8 lbs.

Wed.,8/21/13.
scale indicates that I gained back the 5 lbs that I had managed to lose.
I weighed my self at same time in the same spot wearing my pj's like I always do. according to scale I gained 5 lbs over night.
I know that I can lose weight while I slept. I just don't understand the over night weight gain. Now I have 15 lbs to lose by Nov. sigh.
yesterday I also had pop corn and 4 bites of Sara Lee buttery lunch cake. surly that wouldn't cause 5 lb weight gain over night.
Sigh

214.2 for me. Hope to be down another two lbs. by next Monday. Back in the ball game.

I am new to this site and I weighed 204 this morning and 5 foot 5 1/2 inches tall so I want to lose 70 lbs I had lost 15 lbs doing a green smoothie challenge and it worked but is very expensive so I still try to do some on occasion.
Now I am on medication that I have been on for about 6 wks and have gained the 15 lbs back. Very frustrating

I weighed in at 275.8 this morning. I'm new here. I'm down from 284. Can't keep motivated..and I stress eat. Working on it tho ;)

From what I have gathered today. salt can cause weigh gain. and it may take a wk r longer to flush water weight. I think that someone may have stated that it may take a wk to flush I lb of water weight by the wk.. Sigh.
I did it to myself. I tracked it back to having had pop corn.
There is pop corn that is only 100 cal.'s.
Check on my fitness pal. in listing of pop corn. it listed names of low cal. pop corn.
I gained 5 whole lb.'s : O Think of bulky ness, n how heavy a 5 lb bag of potatoe are :I ya that's what I put back on my gut. dam rolls.

Weighed myself on Monday and was down 2 pounds. Ate a boatload of crap yesterday, so I don't know where I'll be this coming Monday!

Welcome belle!
It's hard when medications we need can cause weight gain.
You can do this!

And I haven't weighed in since forever. Need to start doing this again. I need to be accountable.

Sorry you had a difficult time of it, Admiral. Hopefully, since it was water weight that you gained, that it has come right back off when your sodium and water balance evens out again. Do you weigh from morning to morning after urinating and before eating or drinking anything? My husband who has CHF was told to do that, and if he gains 2 lbs from one day to the next, or 5 lbs in a week, he has to call the cardiologist.

Good going, Flowers!

Welcome, Belle, I know it can be difficult on some medications, don't get discouraged, though. Slow and steady wins the race.

Welcome, Raven, good going! I hope this reporting idea will be motivating for you and not stressful.

Jenn, you are doing great with the 2 pound loss. We will see what the future brings. To me, it seems very difficult to hold steady.

Welcome back, MinHiding, I hope you find it helpful to post your progress here...we are just all in this together!

Good luck to you all!

Fren thank you for response n asking. I weigh in every morning after I use bath rm. I kep my scale beside kitchen refg..
I do not wear my heavy housecoat nor my house shoes when weighing in.
If I gain up to 3 lbs n it stay that way for 3 to 5 dys then I know that it is fat weight gain w water gain.
I adjust daily cal.'s n water in take based on gained weight.
I knew not to have pop corn but I gave in. every since I've been bloated, have water weight gain, n constipation.
My body will not digest any type of bread like breads. that includes pop corn. I assume that it may take up to 3 wks to completely flush salt out.
I userly half to go to Dr when I get like this. This time I'm going to try to treat myself. she basically give me a laxative n gas relief medication., n med for heart burn.
I sure the pharmist can recommend a mild, over the counter ,laxative.
I'm not use to eating salt. However even Sara lee 45 cal. bread may have salt in it. most friozen vegs does.
Aw. I hear my honey. he stop by.
