It doesn't ask for weight and height. It just asks for age and if your male or female....I wanted a Polar, but got another brand from target. It was a little cheaper and didn't require the chest band. 

Maybe I should have gotten the Polar. I don't know... oh well

I wish I could help you. I have done the EXACT SAME THING...more, less, blah blah blah...I'm 5' 3" and 162.5 I feel I'll be this forever!!! I have been stuck for almost 1.5 months too!!!

I am keepin' on keepin' on though. I have lost inches!

Have you measured yourself? Try that...I know that the scale moving is what modivates me the most, but just when I felt like giving up I did my measurements and it pushed me just a little harder not to give up because my measurements were down.

Please...if you find the answer...let me know!!!

I have lost 16 to 17 pounds and no one has said anything. When I mention it to close friends they say "good job" and "that's great." I don't tell them to see if they say "oh yes you are getting smaller" I tell them because I am excited and want to share it with someone. It does make me sad that nobody has said on their own "You've lost weight" especially my finace. It almost makes me feel like he doesn't want to say anything for fear I'll stop losing and get comfortable....maybe he wants me smaller. Whatever the case...I am doing this for me. It's just not great modivation at ALL!

Keep up the good work!!! You should be proud! :)

I had it done about 6 years ago. I had to get some slight reconstruction and implants. It was well worth it. I won't lie it did hurt a bit, BUT the bad pain only lasts about a week and then your good to go. Just make sure you do everything the doc tells you AND find a GOOD doctor! Cheaper is not always better!!! I do wish I hadn't gone as big as I did. I am a 38 C and D in Victoria Secret. I already wear a large size shirt and it's really hard to find stuff that fits right everywhere. But I have also heard that people wish they had gone bigger, so it's really personal preference.  The fiance loves them! I keep asking if I should get a slight reduction, but he says no way. Wink and also if you have the option of saline or silicone, get silicone, it's much lighter and more natural feeling and looking!

Weight Loss Did everyone hit their first plateau around the loss of the first 10 pounds? Aug 15 2006

Thank you all for your advice and help.  I have been teetering on 8 to 10 pounds for about a week and today it is 10.  My trend is getting closer to the 10 mark so maybe I won't go up much.  So if I eat more will I gain more then lose more?? Or will I stay at the same weight then lose?  Also, how many more calories do you eat a day to break the plateau? And for how long?

Wow...Thanks guys... I have got a lot to think about.  When a antidepressant affects you sexually, do you mean desire to have sex or harder to get to your happy place? 

I hope it works for me.  I will try it at least, I eat when I am depressed and don't care about anything, including the way I look at the time.  But later on that is what gets me.  I am depressed because I am overweight.  So it's a catch 22 thing.  :(

I am in the same situation as you.  I was 180 and am now at 174.5.  I had gotten down to 171 but stopped trying as much and  have put weight back on, plus it's that time of the month.  I am getting married in 1 year (June 9, 2007) and wanted to lose at least 40 to 50 pounds.  I know how it feels to want to be a beautiful bride.  Please add me as a friend and I'll do the same.  How is it coming so far?  What is your wedding date?  Maybe we can push each other to be better about eating.  I wanted to take pills too, but everyone on here talked me out of it.  Hope you see results soon because if you are like me, I give up quickly!!!

Natasha, look at it this way.  Now you have a chance to be a fit mom and stay fit through the pregnancy.  You can still count calories, but they will just be higher.  You can still workout, just do mostly walking and preggers yoga or pilates.  My sister-in-law does all of these when she gets pregnant and she stays fit and trim throughout and once she has the baby she walks everyday.  Her daughters are 18 months apart and she is a size 4.  God help me when I get pregnant.  I can't wait though!  You'll be fine. We are here for you!!!
