I read the fear of thin thread, and realized that I think I am afraid of getting thin. I'm afraid because its a place I've never been, and I don't know what to do. I'm afraid because I'll be where I've been trying to be for so long, and I won't know what to do. I know how to lose weight, and I know how to gain weight, and I've done both fairly easily for many years. But what if I really get to my goal weight, which it seems likely that I will... then what? I'm scared of only having to maintain my weight. I'm comfortable with counting calories and working out hard, and seeing results. But will it really be that easy to maintain my weight once I get there. I'm scared because its the unknown. I want to find out so badly, but I keep holding myself back. Knowing that it is scary, and that I want to do it anyway helps a lot.
Today:
exercise: burned 425 calories by running and walking
food: didn't count calories, but it was around or over 2000. This number needs to go waaaay down tomorrow if I want to see any results.
Overall: didn't have a great day. I was bothered by a couple other things. I went to the gym after my first class, changed, got on the treadmill, walked for 5 minutes, ran for maybe one, and then got off, changed back, and went home. I've never done that. I just really didn't want to be there. It was really weird. I guess I'm feeling discouraged about weight loss overall right now because I'm not seeing any results, and I don't know what to do. I'll just keep doing what I'm doing, and keep pushing on, and they'll come eventually I guess. It's really hard though.
