Love my hubby...but would love to turn a head or two again....

ASo I believe I am in another Plateau...BOOOOOO!!

No change in weight in the last 2 weeks....no inches lost....no fat % going down .....it seems every 10ish pound loss....it happens....I will keep on keeping on even thought it sucks the big one!

I will mix up my work out....and eat as healthy as I can.. maybe add some new foods into my diet.....this last 26 pounds is gonna take forever ....I swear!!

why can't it just be easy..you put in the work and it comes off according to the numbers ...you ate 500 calories less today....you burned 500 calories working out...you do that 6 days a week.. that's a deficit of 6000 calories..or 1.7 pounds a week GONE....why doesn't my body understand Math...ok I understand variables like under working-out and underestimating calories ate....but still I just wish it was easy as 1+1 = HOT and HEALTHY...haha
 
ALife would be so much easier if things were so simple, but alas, we have to work even harder to achieve our goals. You'll get past that plateau.Just stick with it :)!
 
AYour are so right Loch!! ....I do know that I appreciate this 54 pounds a lot more than the 40 I lost and gained back a few years ago...it came off fast and I regained fast....this weight came off slow and its NEVER coming back!!

I don't mind being the turtle in this race :):):)
 
ASELF MOTIVATION NEEDED TODAY!!! :) :)

AI hit 55 pounds gone today!! WHOO HOO.

LOST 1.4 pounds...its my first loss in 17 days!! I took a few days off over the weekend and it seem to help...got some much needed sleep over the last few days....so I think I reset my body for a bit again.

I can't believe it...I skipped the 165's :)

Don't you hate me...young lady...you are all the above and more!! but sincerely thanks so much for the "love"....its so hard in "real" life to be happy about new goals or progress....I mean the hubby is wonderful...but he always was.....loved me skinny...loved me fat....and loves me now in between.....but you know how it is....even the close friends who have been awesome about me getting healthy....don't want to hear about stupid stuff like collar bones...but this place lets me be happy for me and for you and everyone else.

And btw ....I always wanted to be a brunette ....so I really do look at you and drool! :) ...I am really surprised how many people tell me I look younger now....I never really understood how much my weight was aging me.... externally as well as internally .....I had two different people at work last week...say it was hard to believe I had a 16 year old...and you saying I look in my twenties...I tell you it is that kind of reinforcement that can move mountains....lol...or at least get me moving on the elliptical...haha
 
YAY for collarbones Tete!! You are looking great &amp; have much to be proud of! Sorry I've been a bit of a slackie in here. You are doing so well &amp; I just wanted to let you know just how impressive I think you are! xoxo Cate
 
AThanks so much Cate......I really really appreciate the support and kind words....its ok to slack....we all do from time to time....hope you are doing well and thanks again :)
 
AOnly in western PA can we go from mowing grass one day to shoveling snow the next.......its crazy... I am in the 12 to 18 inch range!!

So took my godson to see Chimpanzee yesterday...it was a really cute movie...the photography/cinematography was breath taking...I did enjoy a few treats and we went to Burger King after.... we had a really nice day...he is such a sweet little boy...only 7 and so so funny.

but of course the scales are showing it... up a pound......my calories were in my range and all....but it still shows a gain...drives me crazy..... :willy_nilly:

I have to admit...even with my recent success...every day the thoughts run through my head... " this is to hard....I miss eating what I want....I just want to sit here on the computer all day...this sucks." ..its getting harder everyday....my maintenance calories are so low now that my daily calorie burn is getting lower and lower....and that's with working out a minimum 4 days a week and hour a time. I hate to see if I changed it to 30 minutes 4 times a week.

Not a good start to my week...bad weather and bad mood. :(
 
Your pics keep getting more spectacular, Tete! Wow! :biggrin:


Rosie is right - you really do look like you're in your 20's again!! :biggrin:


Maintenance calories have got me a bit grumpy as well. Hell, I haven't even technically reached maintenance mode, but I feel like it's all I can to just stabilize my weight fluctuations :(


You're doing great though. Even with the Burger King treats, I'd probably be up 3-4 pounds the following morning. My body just seems to hoard that stuff nowadays. So good for you for only seeing 1 measly pound of water weight - which you'll get rid of in no time!


Anyway, love the pics and the socks (lol!) as well :)


Oh and.. what the heck is that weather pic?? What?!


I freaked a little and checked my local weather. So far, its nothing but cloudiness. No mention of snow, but that pic you posted, my area (Adams County) is roughly located right under where the blue 'Weather Channel' logo is in your pic.


Hrmpf. Better not see any of that white stuff! It's almost May for goodness sake!
 
Hi girls, I've stopped weighing myself you know why? Coz it'll drive you crazy, looking and being anxious of what the scale shows and then depressed afterwards if it doesn't show what you THOUGHT it should've. Keep exercising and being mindful of what you eat (is a big factor) now you're not going to be perfect so don't expect it.


I've been reading y'alls threads and I think you both have come a long way, keep it up and please PLEASE stop being so doggone hard on yourselves!
