I have been reading currently some of the recent posts with prideful outbursts such as "I have lost 2 pounds omg!" or "5 pounds off me! WHEEEE" Dont be over joyed. This is actually normal. Average person gains and loses around 2-5 pounds a day. Dont believe me? Step on the scale in the morning, then step on the scale after you had lunch, then after you had dinner. Also alot has to do with water. When you just start to exercise, the sweat (salty water) accounts for most of the weight loss, which is why you get dehydrated thus having to drink more. Water adds up quite the pounds, and going to the bathroom make you lose pounds also. Dont be fooled thought thats all im trying to say. True weight loss occurs with good eating habbits + regular exrcising per day. After a month or so you should see satifactible results.
Best Reguards,

Yo cain, I think its people like you that need a kick in the arse too. Reason why people dont lose weight cuz they make everything so simplifyed and easy on themselfs. Dont you think you have to face the truth? Dont you think thats what they need? Its not insulting its the truth and if you cannot handel it then I suggest getting urself a doctor cuz ur living in a dream world.

*Nods* I agree. I know my weight bounces ALL the time. Its funny though, I think a lot of weight is in my hair because it weighs nearly 20 pounds or so.. bah! You have to wait a few weeks before you can actually say, "I lost a pound" and such. Whatever, you get what I mean
