Weighin this Sat.and not sure if I will show a loss.Weight has been all over the place this month.Should be able to hit the gym again soon so next month I am hoping for a big loss of at least 10 lbs.You can only go so far with diet alone.PT has me doing strenthening exercises for back so I should be able to hit the treadmill and elypticl soon.
