Still no weight loss, still at 171.60, so at least I'm holding. Went to my Zumba class last night and danced my &&&& off. Boy when I leave there I feel like I could run a marathon I have so much energy. CC says I burn 545 calories going steady for an hour as they say it's "high impact", whatever that means, but I'll take it. I think I am the only one with the face as red as Santa when I leave there. Embarassed But it feel so good to sweat a good sweat, sick eh!

Today did some shopping  ( burned 110 calories by my pedometer) and then came home and burned another 300 calories on the treadmill.  LUnch was 3 chicken fingers (small) and ceasar salad, not real heathly, but trust me there was nothing else on that stupid menu that I could order that was healthy. I'm gonna try and pick up my socks and burn more calories than normal. Daily, I have to stick to this exercise thing DAILY. No excuses. Have so much going on this weekend, birthday's, parties and of course Thanksgiving where I will be hostess to 12 family members. I don't mind, I like when the family gets together.

My calories are averaging daily about 1200 - 1250, so I'm sure to loose a lb. with all this exercising. Well, maybe not, I'm not expecting anything, that way I won't be too disappointed. Hopefully I will loose this week as I know next week will be a gain for sure. Yum Yum, turkey & ham and pumpkin pie. Tongue out 

Stay Focused !!!

Just checked in my journal haven't lost a thing since September 12. I think I'm overdue.

You at some point are going to have to up your calories because you can't stay at the minimum for caloric intake.  Best of luck, and keep up the good work.

Take care and God Bless.

I don't know how you can survive on that low amount of calories and all that exercise.  You must be losing a lot of fat and gaining muscle.

You'll fall off the edge of this plateau soon enough - keep up the good work, but don't kill yourself - I got a little tired just reading all of your exercise :) lol

With all that activity make sure you are getting enough calories.  I've found when I'm too low I tend to not lose and the 1200 is the bare minimum for women.  Just remember to keep everything in balance - food, exercise, etc and eventually that plateau will be broken.
