a bit discouraged after 2 weeks

It took me 2 weeks to lose that pound. :-( I expected my biggest loss to
be the second week (after TOM). Trying harder this week.

WW does work! You will lose weight again, 'cos you did last time, and
you know how to do it.
Losing a pound in the first week is a blow 'cos some people lose huge
amounts. I lost 6 or 7 in my first week, but it's all water, and just
a little fat. Yours on the other hand was probably all fat.
If you have started doing exercise again, then you probably have upset
the water balance and in the next couple of weeks the retained water
will slowly disappear.
I know it's frustrating but you just have to be patient. I'm as
impatient as anyone. I can't believe that it's taken 2 years to get
here, but all that effort has paid off and it will for you too.

Hi, Yeah for you! You are doing great! You had a problem and you dealt
with it.

Journaling faithfully plus several days of exercise helped me the last time
I did WW. It seemed harder to do the same this time.
Today's a good day. The wake up weigh in this morning kicked off a better
attitude. It's 6:30pm and I still have 8.5 points left. The past two weeks
I would have consumed all my points by this time of day. Yeah for me!

When I journal faithfully, I always lose nicely. I do have to add that I
am
an exercise junky, earn at least 4 points 6 days a week.

WI today after two weeks back at WW. I have lost a total of ONE POUND.
Because a loss is a loss, down is down and I had a nice NSV (looser
waist
band) I am not very down in the dumps about such slow weight loss this
early
in the game but...

Not sure but my point intake may have been 40 -50 points or more before
WW.
My points level is at 22 plus Flex points. Is it possible that my body
has
rebelled at the drop in points I'm giving it? Should I have included
more
exercise during those first two weeks? I certainly did use my Flex
points
and been through TOM and expected to lose a little more this week but it
didn't happen. Last couple of days I did not journal but didn't think
just
THAT would make the difference.

I'm hoping I can journal each and every day and not slack off near the
end
of my week. I WILL find out the points of an item before eating it and
journal it. (i.e. found out my "breakfast bread" is 4 pts. per slice -
glad
I had only a few slices of it this week).

Questions about my meager weightloss so early in the game:

Have I busted up my metabolism that badly?
Did I eat too many Flex points?
Would faithful journalling helped a lot or a little?
At this weight (150lbs.) do I have to exercise 2pts. worth atleast 5
times
per day for a 1lb./wk loss?

Any other suggestions?
