But the lowest weight will be your empty and naked weight. To me, that's the sensible one to measure and record - so that's first thing in the morning, no clothes, after a pee.

And another thing - debates about where your waist is? It's the smallest distance around your middle. Again, why all the angst about measuring such a distance from your belly button etc - go with the smallest. That's not cheating. Sometimes it's as if people are deliberately trying to find ways...

Nearly 5 years, my how time flies. My current weight is 135, and I have decided to start fasting more often to get to my goal of 128. Anything between 128-132 is good these days. I have been around...

With two big holiday events in the past 10 days, my eating parameters have suffered a bit to say the least! For some reason I just could not get myself to fast this past week AT ALL, plus those two events...

Good luck, @moderatemeals! I think you'll love this way of life!
Losing 1.6 pounds is hardly a plateau! You are not going to keep losing at the same rate as the beginning. You should be very happy with 1 pound a week!
