WHY? you still lost weight this week, plus with all that exercising, Im sure you are making muscle, which weighs more but also ends up burning more calories - so good job! 

Yeah why? this was a good week! You will be putting water weight off and on through out this journey up and down weigh ins are common. Read my journal from a few weeks ago when I started strength training, I put on 14 pounds of fluid in a few days then lost it all and then some! You are doing great!!!  

If you're disappointed about not losing more quickly, then you really need to have an honest conversation with yourself about what your expectations are here. Weight loss is not an exact science. Everyone's body is different & there are just too many variables. You will find that in general the people here who have had success adopted the attitude that they will do the best they can for as long as it takes to get down to a healthy weight. Trying to put time limits on it is setting yourself up for disappointment & ultimately, failure. Think about that. 

Thanks you guys for the support! As for expectations, I set them high not to fail but to reach for. And I'm not giving up. It was an emotional day for me. I'm over it. My butt is getting right back on that eliptical as soon as I get off work!
