I'm losing, too, but I always have these setbacks right around menstruation. This month, I could feel it coming on, and unlike last month, I didn't use it as an excuse to binge. But I STILL went backwards this week. I even worked out 4 times this week instead of 3, including a mountain biking trek not 4 hours after my morning cardio/weight lifting on Wednesday. My weight went up almost 3 pounds AFTER the start of my period!

It is trending back down...by about a half a pound this morning. But I can't take these setbacks every month. I've even thought of using the pill to skip periods until I get the weight off. I don't have to use BC, and it's been 24 years since I have been on the pill, and it wasn't a positive experience then (although I know they've changed a lot since then). I'm just that motivated! What do you think about that idea?
