I've been on a plateau for about 5 weeks now. No matter what I do, I'm stuck with a 3 lb range. Last night I worked out for over an hour trying to get the fat burning to kick back in. It is very discouraging, but hopefully, if I keep it up, the pounds will start to fall off.

Keep up the good work!!!!! We can do it!!!!
Very true!! Changing habits is hard, but once your body is used to it, you will find it hard to go back to your "old lifestyle"
Sounds like you doing great Marilyn, keep it up girl

I've drank mostly water, but did have two glasses of milk this past week. I'm made up my mind I'm not hopping on the scale except on Tuesday's to do the weekly weigh-in. My son and I are going to take the babies for a walk in a little bit so that will help too.

Thanks for all the encouragement. It is so nice of all of you to suggest things, encourage me and well just be there to help lift my spirits when I think I'm not doing so good. So...ladies....it's on to next Tuesday's weigh-in.......
