I want to see my scale move too but it is only ounces I am losing. It is so frustrating. I am starting the gym next week finally. They walking just is not doing it.

Good on you! I'm not confident enough to join a gym yet but am using my treadmill most days. I finally saw some movement on the scales today! 1.5 lbs!! It's such a small amount but after four weeks of staying the same, I'm thrilled!

Weighed in at 233.6 this morning which means I'm down 2.4 lbs in September. May not sound like much but after 2 weeks of no change I will totally take it, y'all! Hope everyone else is doing good!!

I know exactly how you feel!! Any weight is a victory!! I'm down 3.5lbs for this month.

I was watching episodes of the biggest loser yesterday and it was making me so angry to see their disappointment because they only lost 2 or 3 pounds for the week! If I was losing that each week I would be thrilled!

My fill date is wed also first one but not sure it will happen. I'm having too much trouble getting all my pills down and eating. Or just have trouble getting most foods down. So we'll see what the dr says. Not losing too fast either but several weight gaining pills.

Good luck to everyone.

I know that I didn't fill in for the end of month but wanted to wait to see if I get a fill today. Then I'll be able to gauge if I'll lose or not this month.
