I understand what you are saying. I only weigh once per week though. Yes, I am concerned if I don't lose, I have so much to lose. I do notice very much the looseness of my clothes. Onward and downward...

Have faith and stay the course...who cares how long it takes. Remember FTS is a lifestyle, not a diet

Hi, Teacher2!

As we lose FAT, that FAT volume is temporarily replaced with water.
This is part of our bodies means to maintain stasis (i.e. resisting changes).

Water is heavier than FAT.
It's why FAT floats in water.
But the scale does not know (or care about) that!

So kudos on your progress!

Like Umpa said, the "pounds" WILL come off IF you just stay the course!

Teacher2 welcome and persevere! You are doing well and don't forget the water always.
