Finally I noticed a difference!! I was able to tie my tennis shoes by putting my foot on the bar stool!!! A month ago I'm not sure I could have gotten my leg up there let alone reached my shoe after I did!! Yay!!

I'm only 1 month out. My doctor says it's normal and that it should subside as I continue to lose. I'm pretty sure that the feeling of fullness has meant poor choices for many many years so this will be just another one of the many changes I will go through in this journey.
If it were to stop me from eating my recommended caloric intake then I will start being concerned. I am fully aware that it is head guilt, and like head hunger is something that I can overcome.

I'm glad I'm not the only one! It's especially bad if it's a food I really like. It's funny how many parts of this process I never expected. Lol

Weeks three and four have been a slow go but since it is still going down almost every other day I guess I won't call it a stall.

I can't wait for that moment! I can't even remember the last time I could cross my legs comfortably. It's gotta be more than 10 years.
Congrats on that awesome NSV!!

I'm looking forward to all of these things. I'm just so impatient. I should be happy that I've started the journey and the rest will come. I've already changed so much. I quit smoking, kicked my carb craving, decided to leave the job I hate for the one I really want even though it's less money, I'm tracking all of my food, not letting my sometimes boyfriend upset/mistreat me anymore, and soon I'm moving back to Texas where I really want to be. All within the last month. If I can add patience to this list, 2014 will really be the year of the NSV and SV for me.

Not much progress here. 287.4

You look great! I hope to have results as awesome as yours. What regimen of diet and exercise did you follow?

I am having this same problem. I have a 32oz water bottle and fill it everyday before work but next thing I know it's 5:00 and I have barely touched it. So then I try to drink a lot at once. Which takes forever.

Went back to work today after 13 days today to an office job. I'm very tired and my abs are sore - apparently it takes a lot to sit up for 8 hrs.

Non scale Victory. I am excited for my first one. I'm down 31 pounds from 320 so hopefully it won't be that much longer til I get one!!!

So I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the yoyo scale? I'm down a pound for a day or two, then up a half or whole pound. The next day it usually goes back to lower than before the gain but it really depressing to see gains when I'm eating 500 calories and walking a mile. Grrrrrrrr.

I can't find the Premier shakes anywhere. I don't have a costco or SAMs membership. Any ideas?

Chugging along in the right direction. Would probly be better if I didn't weigh every day cause sometimes it says I gained a little.

I just realized I hadn't recalculated my BMI. Went from 54.9 to now 49.6!!!! Out of the 50's!

I weighed in at 289.1... Coming off slow but steady! That's 31 lbs gone forever in 3.5 weeks!
