UGH!!!!

Feb 27, 2009

(start vent)

I am sooooooo freakin frustrated!!!
I have been stuck with the same dam few pounds for like a month now..
it's driving me up the wall!

I know I can't lose unless I work out..
and now I am working out 4x a week..

I do my zumba classes, which is 1 hr of serious cardio and sweat 2 x a week
and some other form of cardio ( like the elliptical) 2 other times a week.
I've been doing strength training for 2 weeks now..

I hit 250 this month.. which I was happy about.. but i been stuck there..
I got down to 247 earlier this week, but it's been bouncing back between the same few pounds..
UGH!!!

So this is month 5 and my loss is almost nothing this month..

I don't know what else to do.. I understand the loss will not always be consistent..
we gotta lose inches.. the body has to adjust.. eat less, eat more.. write it down.. drink the water .. take the vitamins..
get more protein..

I've tried upping the protein,  eating only protein, adding nuts, taking away nuts, adding fruit, taking fruit away,
drinking protein twice a day with one meal, adding coconut oil, taking coconut oil away., drinking more water, now adding strength training to my work out plan..
AND STILL 250!!?!?

I know all of our bodies are different, but when I watch the weight loss shows on tv..
and let a person go a week without losing ... it's just assumed it's cause the person hasn't done what they were supposed to do..  but they can fly with one week.. but two?? or three??? no loss?? 
they would be voted off..

so with that in mind..
i feel like .. i'm just not doing what i should ..
i am missing something
but what??? 

I know alot of people lose the most in the first 6 months..
I've already been losing slow for a RNY patient as it is..
and to not lose in month 5??? 

UGH!!! I could throw this pity party all dam day but I have to get to my Zumba class..
lol I've gotten to a point where I don't feel good if I don't work out..
blah.. I wish it would just show on the darn scale!
*SIGH*
(end vent)

Now that I had to let all that out..
I keep getting compliments about how good I look
how young I look
.. and yes I notice the changes..
I feel bones.. (whoa)
I can feel my collar bone..
Like just a little bit to go before I can actually SEE it!
I got rid of 4 huge trashbags of clothes.. donated to charity..
I can actually fit into some stretch size 18 jeans .. (wow)

yes, God is good!
