Hey Echo-

Hang in there. I know it seems bad, but I've been in the same situation for a while now. Things will get better. Darn blasted water weight can creep up and frustrate the best of us. Don't worry, it'll leave. Just keep drinking up and try to stay cool.

BTW- You've done marvelously so far, who's to say what you'll accomplish by the time of your b-day?? Remember, you still may be losing inches. Lord knows that's all I seem to be losing lately.

Take care-
Nikki

A whole bunch of my online friends have experienced this too. It's so weird, but I'd rather lose inches than pounds.

Hi Echo,

I have noticed in several of your posts that you stated you don't count your carbs. If I were you, I would start doing that. Carb creep can slow your loss and even make you gain. Hang in there! You are doing great!

Stay encouraged...perhaps what you've eaten has had a high sodium content and therefore making you retain more water.

You're progress so far is inspiring so please hang in there....make sure you do keep up with your measurements too because as mentioined before U may be losing there!
