My scales do the same thing. After a while I check to see if my protein, fats and carbs are in balance. If they are I may add more protein and less or no grains, breads or pasta for a week or so just to change it up. My diet usually consists of lots of veggies, some fruit 30 to 40 % protein. Potatoes, which I love will undo my efforts every time. However, taking less than my RDI on a daily basis and getting exercise does eventually move the scale lower. Take heart. Your are doing so well. J

Deb, I did it. I took your advice and just had a little protein for dinner last week. Cut the kcal way back to almost 1,000 and it shows. I'm down 5-1/2 from last Saturday. Thanks for being my buddy and supporting me.

As long as it's not moving up you're doing well, not great but the weight wasn't put on in a weekend ... in weaker moments maybe, or in celebration.

Never2old, you are the first person to ask me to be your buddy, so I will always support you! When you said you had to lose 6 lbs by the 31st of March, I was really worried about you! Glad you are successful. Keep going, but do be careful to eat enough calories. Don't want you or anyone else to lose muscle!

Everyone, I thank you for supporting me. I do learn so much from all of you. I have increased the fiber and limited the starchy vegetables. I have a salt problem, although I do have many days that my sodium is less than 1500 mg, so I am encouraged about my progress. Fluid retention is also part of it. Dolores was right about that. :)

Not to "barge in" on the conversation but, Dreamcatcher, I couldn't help noticing your entry. I recently either heard or read from someone that no salt can be bad for your health as unbelievable as it may sound :). The ideal is probably a little dose of it. I'm not sure of it though ;)

I'll investigate I was told and read it was potassium !!

There is a salt substitute called "NO SALT". It's main ingredient is potassium chloride. J

I should probably also take another look into that :). Oh, I didn't know that JovialJ :) Thanks for the info! I thought "NO SALT" was literally no salt lol...
