Slow Losers Encourage Me!

Ok been doing ww for 2 wks. I have lost 4#. Why am I scared? I feel like I will not lose. I have lost so many times. I cannot quit. My cholesterol is up. My fatigue is a drag. I need to stay healthy. I know 4# is the 1-2 per week so what's up w the fear?

It took me 5 weeks to lose the first 2 pounds on WW. I lost 3 pounds the 6th week for a 5 pound total. I guess my body was adjusting.
It will happen. Just keep it up.

I wont lose for a week, then all of sudden the following day, I am down 4 pounds! Its weird because, I get so discouraged, it fools me.

I agree with Renee, I also lose weight in phases. One week I may lose 1/2 a lb the next, I lose 3 lbs. After my first initial weight loss, I have been averaging about 1.5 lbs a week. I try to remember that slow and steady wins the race. Studies show that you are more likely to keep the weight off if you do it slowly.

Hey!!! We've both got about the same amount to lose....look at it this way...with the SUCCESS you're having now you will be at GOAL and in your nice new clothes by July 4th!!! Nothing but time between now and then...just visualize how you're going to look then!!! Let the fireworks begin!!!!

Hi Denine, Renee, Jeremy, and Imhall! Thanks for writing back to me. I like thinking I could be at goal by July. If I am even 1/2 way there I will be happy. I just get easily discouraged. On week 3 doin ww. Don't feel deprived, maybe that's why it feels like it should be impossible to lose. I am never hungry! Cool
