| Happy March everyone!
Let's start this month of with a new attitude for weight loss. I have been at this diligently since 1/22 and have only lost 1.5 lbs with no more than 1400 calories a day, even on weekends! Talk about metabolism slowing down, I'm not 50 yet! (Sept) I exercise at the gym 3-4 x week but to no avail. I'm not giving up now just out of anger ! I love reading all your emails and realize there are some wonderful committed women out there (and men too!). |

| Sounds like you are doing great. I am frustrated with only a 1lb loss in 3 wks!
I eat only about 1400 per day/no more! |

| i'm wondering if you are entering correct amounts if you only eat 1,000 per day. They add up so quickly, you must hardly be eating anything!
Are you eating 3 meals? I could kill 1,000 calories by eating crackers and cheese. Add some fruit and maybe a slice of whole wheat bread and you make 1,000 easy! Are you being honest with proportions? |

| I too got a box of chocolates for V-tines day(Whitman sampler) 3 pieces=190 calories. Figure if you ate 9 pieces that would be 570 calories. | |||

| Okay Sharonc27; Here's the deal. I eat 1200-1400/day. Yesterday I went a little over and ate 1437 (there was a b-day party at work). NOw today I shoveled snow for two solid hours and burnt 811 calories just from that. I only at a little over 1,000 so far today ALL IN ALL, SINCE 1/22, AT THIS RATE, I ONLY LOST A TOTAL OF 1 LB!!!!! What am i doing wrong? I don't know how this works sharon. Maybe you can guide me. Thanks, Soon to be 50. |

| Thanks for the words of encouragement. I finally saw a .5 lb decrease today after 2 solid weeks. I feel I am eating enough because I'm not hungry and I'm eating a lot of fruits and veggies. I DO allow myself a little bit of chocolate every day. Believe me, I count those calories too!! My body does hold fat (as can be seen by my cellulite!) |

| Hey; I'm a newbie to this site. I am 49 yrs old and a former member of diet.com which i found successful in dropping 15 lbs last yr. Gained 7 back. Now, I've been on track diligently since 1/22 and have not lost 1 lb! Only 1300-1400 cals./day maximum! Work out at the gym on elliptical 3x week! HELLLPP! I'm disgusted this time. What's the deal? How can i go 2 solid weeks and not lose an ounce. In fact at one point I gained 2 lbs. My analysis every day is an "A". PLease guys, some words of encouragement here! Lynn |
