I haven't lost one pound. I am at the same weight.
I am on antidepressants and I just can't loose a pound. This is sooooooo frustrating. I just have to walk more. (((rolling my eyes up)))

Well I can totally understand what you are saying it is soo hard to go when you go by yourself so I guess the first tip would be try to get a buddy which you can try to look for in a chat room like in self.com or somewhere you feel comfortable bringing up that issue. Second tip is go to a gym to which theres maybe a womens area in which you will feel more comfortable , keep in mind that everyone there is there for most the same reasons as you! Last tip I can think of is try to join a class that you can look forward to that will give you a boost of motivation the more you get involved, the more likely you will find someone in there that if you miss a class wil say they missed you or let you know what a awesomw class you missed last week! Which is what im in the process of doing , im joining a water aerobics class. Hope I helped!

I drink a mix of diet drinks and water, but I will take your advice about just drinking water. I am firm, but the weight on the scale is scary. I am going to talk to my doctor about these pills. I am shaped different too. My butt is higher and arms are bigger. I do have a waist line. I do some free weights and use a ball for the abs. Hubby things it looks good. I am 125 at almost 5'-3".
Before the antidepressants, I weighed around 114 dressed. But, I didn't exercise and I could eat whatever I wanted all my life. Right after being put on these pills, I had to watch everything. I actually eat 1/2 as much and move more. The scale doesn't budge. These pills are a joke. They are good for your mind though. (((sigh)))

Let's see, since my post about oh 20 days ago, I'm still in my same weight range (125-127 lbs) -surprise surprise! I expect to lose a couple lbs because its my "period" week and im not going to be taking BC pills this week. I will aim for starting Weight Watchers this week and maybe squeeze in a 2 hr workout. Good luck to moi! *Updates in 2 weeks!*

Ok, I think i'm going ot check out the women's gym near my work on Wednesday. Are there any questions I should ask? I really don't know what to expect but after I gained 25 pounds since January this year. I've gotten very self conscious and unhappy about my weight.

Well just make sure that you feel comfortble there and that the equipment looks up to date! You dont want to go to a place that looks like its falling apart! Look at everything like the locker room and showers to make sure they are sanitary and stuff! I dont really know what you may ask them to be honest but make sure you like it there and that you feel comfortable! Remember most all the women there will be there for the same reason you are! Dont feel bad it would be worse not to care. Best of Luck!

My hubby loves how I look. It's the scale and how I have had to buy bigger clothes that really angers me. But, I am toned. I mean does muscle weigh that much. I don't think so. I am seeing the doc tomorrow.
