If it helps I hardly ever lose when I'm exercising. Not that I'm saying you should stop ;) But it sometimes seems to take a while to catch up. You're probably getting slimmer, but I'd imagine you're probably holding water in your muscles while they repair and recover from exercise.
It IS frustrating though! I remember when I was out running 4-5 times a week, swimming, walking the dogs, etc and didn't lose a thing! But it did eventually catch up and I definitely fit in to my clothes better. And felt better about myself too :)

Maybe you should eat a bit more? Trial a week of going right back to basics and eating all your syns and enjoying stuff and see what that does :)

The diabetes and thyroid wont be helping at all, I know ;) But you could try new stuff and shift it round a bit :) xx

It's terrible when you work at it and your weight STS or you gain, it drives me mad. I've found that working nights messes with my WI I lose more when i'm off than I do when I'm in work. If I'm off work I have a good loss and the week after when I go back in I usually gain :( I weighed myself at work friday night it said I'd gained 9 lbs :eek: I was mortified, I know the tablets the doctor gave me can cause water retention, I'm hoping it's gone by wednesday lol. I'm sure it will show next week :) x x

I have IBS as well I take peppermint tablets, that seems to help it a lot. And I already take herbal water balance pills but I'm still swollen, especially my hands :(
I'm sure you will, Ian does that, doesn't lose fora couple of weeks and then loses about 6-8lb at once x x
