I knew this day would come... I couldn't keep decreasing at the rate I was:

No gain or loss this week: 262lbs (118.84kgs)
===

Things I noted:

• Changed from walking sooooo many hours to jogging (less time and less calories burned).
• All body measurements decreased from last week, except the legs
• My BMI decreased
• I can see and feel changes in my legs - toning
• My upper body skin feels very loose

Conclusion - While I did not lose weight this week:

• The change of routine was a shock to the body
• This is a temporary plateu due to routine change, and
• Overall BMI decrease is an indication of muscle/fat displacement

Well, I am very encouraged by the BMI decrease and the loose skin feeling. Something tells me I will be out of the 260's next week

Great work, everyone!

CoolTech,

That's excellent! One of the first things I noticed was that I was losing inches, but not weight. My clothes kept getting looser and looser until I had to replace them. You may be replacing fat with muscle which weighs more. But, one of the benefits of good lean muscle is that it will increase your metabolism and burn more calories, which in turn will reduce fat, and so on and so on.

I'm in at 217 today, up one pound from last week, but down from the weekend where I was away and ate all kinds of bad things...

And thanks Almity for keeping me company all those months ago when no-one else cared I didn't know it wasn't your weigh day! And I chose Thursday, between Tuesday and Thursday, because it gave me extra time to recuperate from the weekend

I lost 2.5 lbs this week. Finally, the plateau (caused mainly by my being portion controlled challenged) has broken. That's down 37 lbs since I started on this journey 2 years ago. Yeah, a lot of yo-yo-ing in between.
