Hang in there, Suzanne, lots of things keep the scales from budging, like heavy humidity, barometric pressure, lots of fruit, sleepiness, stress. Then suddenly one morning, 2 or 3 pounds are gone. If you're putting out more than you're taking in and getting exercise, worry not. The hour will come. I get impatient with the numbers too! 

When I had that no-movement on the scales, I reverted to measuring myself with a tape measure, which gave me the much-needed "reward". Seeing the smaller numbers on the tape measure is just as powerful as seeing the scale numbers go down. Just a suggestion. 

Thanks guys. I will try the tape measure. My problem is that I need that reward to keep me motivated 

What about water bloating on some days? Doesn't the tape measure fluctuate the same way scales do? 

I hate days that I bloat :) 

I also started trying with the tape, and that felt gooooood! This friday I'll weigh in again and also measure myself; one of them must give me good nwes hopefully. Don't worry too much Suzanne, as you know even not seeing a change in numbers doesn't mean that there is no progress. Keep up with the good work!
