jacey, my hubby is on about going out for a meal 'good one' as you say. After reading that I may ask him to postpone ;-). Think your CD is right. In my early weeks I weighed daily and had no losses for 6days even though I was 100%. Learnt my lesson as it soon caught up and suddenly felt inches off instead of off the scales. You are doing well. good luck and don't worry about the scales, tape measure will probably prove the scales wrong. Stay happy.
