You are not alone in this department. I am going through
it right now myself. Try changing your menus especially
your breakfasts to see if that helps. I always have cereal
for breakfast but now am having other things and the scale
dropped down this morning. Try changing going low carb for
a day or 2. Anything to shake things up. Your body is
knows that you are on a diet and has gone into starvation
mode. Now is the time to keep it guessing. Good luck and
don't give up.

Sounds like you have a working plan so work it.

The scale cannot be the sole determinant of what's happening
with your body. As mentioned, your clothing and how you feel
are also part of
it. Besides, over all you seem to be holding your own and
that is not bad or wrong.

By the way, what is _YOUR_ goal weight versus the "official"
WW goal for someone your height?

I think you may be right - I should try and juggle things around a bit and
see if that helps. It's hard though, cos if you change things, you really
have to hang in there for a while to let it take effect - and I haven't the
patience - I want results now! *grin* I guess I'm just hanging in there

2001 ...busy going nowhere...

As you can see from the figures below - I hit WW goal ages back, went up a
bit, and am now nearly back down again. My WW goal is 126lbs. Personally
I'd like to be a few pounds below that to give me that leeway....but I'm not
sure that's possible with my current muscle mass. I was at 118lbs for a
bit, which I loved, and kinda hanker after now. However, I was actually
slightly larger size wise than I am now, 7lbs heavier. Mind you, I am a
different shape - so not all my "very skinny" clothes fit me because of that
rather than the weight. So, on balance, I think my personal goal and my WW
one are the same - 126lbs please 🙂

The way I'm looking at it at present is that, give or take
the odd pound, I'm still maintaining my weight at more
than 25lbs less than I used to be, and that's a pretty
awesome thing.

I have to agree that being 25 pounds down from THEN is
awesome. And that you really are not losing ground. It would
be nice if we all could get more accurate bodymass and body
fat info to help know where we are and what factors enter
into our current and optimal weight.

Your exercise level is pretty high and so that makes some of
the calculations harder.

Just - BEST

krys said:

As you can see from the figures below - I hit WW goal ages
back, went up a bit, and am now nearly back down again. My
WW goal is 126lbs. Personally I'd like to be a few pounds
below that to give me that leeway....but I'm not sure
that's possible with my current muscle mass. I was at
118lbs for a bit, which I loved, and kinda hanker after
now. However, I was actually slightly larger size wise than
I am now, 7lbs heavier. Mind you, I am a different shape -
so not all my "very skinny" clothes fit me because of that
rather than the weight. So, on balance, I think my personal
goal and my WW one are the same - 126lbs please 🙂

The way I'm looking at it at present is that, give or take
the odd pound, I'm still maintaining my weight at more
than 25lbs less than I used to be, and that's a pretty
awesome thing.

I know the feeling about the patience but I'm down 2lbs this
week and I am assuming it is due to my juggling the
breakfasts. Try it for a week or 2 to see if it makes a
difference. As they say, breakfast is the most important
meal of the day and it might just get lazy if it is woken up
each morning with the same thing day after day.

The scale cannot be the sole determinant of what's
happening with your body. As mentioned, your clothing
and how you feel are also part of
it. Besides, over all you seem to be holding your own
and that is not bad or wrong.

By the way, what is _YOUR_ goal weight versus the

Good Point!

I'm just happy that you like your body shape with the extra
muscle. That extra muscle will help you eat more to maintain
anyway and that's great.

Hi, krys, I've gone back to the attitude that if I have done
all I could, move on, don't obsess. Living in right now and
dealing is hard enough without adding to it by worrying
about things I can't change about the past. Take Care
