Well, I'm still working out 3-4 times per week. I usually do my Wii Fit stuff, and then get off the Wii and lift weights. I have a set of 5's and 10's (free weights)...I'm doing every arm exercise imaginable along with sit ups, lunges, and squats.
So why am I frustrated? The scale is not budging. Not even a little.
Hubby assures me that I'm definitely making changes...that I'm a different shape. And the way my clothes fit testify to this as well. So why am I not losing weight?
I have a hair-brained theory: I think I might be losing a little bit of fat AND gaining some muscle. They're sorta cancelling each other out, making it seem like nothing is happening. Why is this fat being so stubborn? I think it's because I'm still nursing the baby. My body really likes to hold on to a bit of padding while I'm nursing.
So I'm still going to keep working at it with the hope that when I stop nursing in the next couple of months (sniff, sniff), the fat will just start to disappear. Please, Lord, let this happen! I'm afraid that I'll lose all my motivation if I don't start losing after I wean Thomas.

I needed to read this!!! I am so in the same boat and my husband actually made a similiar comment as yours!!!
I will pray for you as I pray for myself on this weight loss ride! Or I should say, "getting healthier" :)
Good you are exercising. Try not to get to down about the scales being stubborn, they will move in the end. And it's great you can feel a different shape.
Hi again, was it here or on your other blog (or am I just plain confused) where there was a link to an online hairstyle program, where you can see how you'd look with different hairstyles?
you will either know what I mean or think I'm crazy :-)

No, you're not crazy! :) I wrote about it on my other blog. Hairstyler.com or Hairstyles.com. I have a search thing in my left sidebar. Type "hair" or something like that and I'm sure you'll find it :)
