So Angry

I'm angry today because once again I'm not losing any freakin weight! I'm so frustrated with this whole process. What is the use of dieting and exercising when it's doing NO GOOD! I bounce between 179 and 183 all the time. No matter how much I cut out or how much I'm exercising I'm not losing any weight. If I do I just gain it back. I gained 3 lbs just by going to bed last night! What is the point?! I've been exercising since October or at least November. I should lose around a pound a week. I understood gaining at first because I'm rebuilding muscle but by now I should be losing! Nope, nada, nothing. I need to start seeing some results or I'm going to go postal!

  1. Have you checked out my friend Emily's blog? She's going through the same thing right now. You should check her blog out. It's one of the ones I have listed on my blogroll.

    I know how frustrating this is, from my own past experience. And I know how hard it is to see the weight melt off others quickly, while you're struggling to see a change yourself. I have some guilt over this; trust me!

    With your schedule, losing weight will be harder than if you weren't working odd hours. It's hard not to eat late, but nearly impossible to resist if you have to work nights! Start small. Try to limit your snacks, or make sure you're stocked with healthy snacks for the times you know you're going to reach for something.

    I'm sorry you're having a hard time right now. Hang in there, though. It's never going to be easy, but if you commit yourself to a lifestyle change, you'll see the weight coming off in time. If you've been at about this weight for some time, it takes a while to break through that barrier & see your weight below that number your body seems to be fixed at. It will change though. I promise, if you don't give up, it will!

  2. One more thing... maybe you could kick the scale to the curb for a while & instead take weekly or bi-weekly measurements to follow your progress. I'm betting with all the hard work you've done, your measurements will change before the scale changes much.
