Man, is this slow going...and discouraging. I know I have had goodies every once in a while and the occasional adult beverage....but I have also been sweating my but off each day and realistically I am not going to give up the occasional goodie and the even more often cocktail or wine. So I guess slow and steady is the way to go...at least the number went down this week instead of up. I am hanging tough....Zumba today.

I decided a long time ago that losing weight is too hard....harder than quitting smoking. So I just got happy with where I am now and quit trying. But good for you
ReplyDeleteYou can do it!!! I found that when I had my 10 lbs to lose, I'd work work work and see nothing, and then suddenly I'd lose 4 lbs. Then I'd plateau for 6 weeks again and lose. I think there's a lot of converting fat into muscle that we don't see on the scale. I always *try* to remember to think about how things are fitting vs. what the scale says (but it's hard!)
ReplyDeleteIt is and I know you are right Amy. I am trying hard not to get discouraged.
DeleteOnce again I will only say "Be gentle on yourself." I love you and find you perfect just the way you are.
ReplyDeleteThanks for always having my back!
