Little trip
So I'm leaving for the weekend to visit one of the bigger cities in my state, and I'll be traveling with someone who has been watching my caloric intake. So, I'm feeling a little worried, especially because I haven't been able to make a dent in these next 20 lbs I have to lose. I'm beginning to feel desperate, I've stayed under 900 cal for months it seems and I just can't lose any more weight. Doesn't help my scale seems to be broken, gives me seemingly random weights, going from the 130's to 110's within a day, not likely to be an authentic weight. But I am starting to stress about this new plateau. I NEED to start losing again. And while being watched I don't know how I'll manage. Either people notice my eating habits and maybe start doing something about them or I stall my weight loss or maybe even gain. I don't know what to do. Maybe I'll fast tomorrow to prepare, just make sure to drink a shit-ton of water and a small amount of caffeine. Worried, stressed. Hating my body, why won't it work right?

Hey there, I hope your trip goes well. Something I tell myself at plateaus that can help is that my body is "testing" me, to see if I "deserve" to lose. Because I've noticed that when I *do* break a plateau, it's usually pretty dramatically. I'll stay at the same weight to the 1/10th of a lb for four days and then be down like a pound and a half the next day. The laws of physics are immutable; if you're taking in fewer calories than you're consuming, you WILL lose weight. Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteI'm just starting to get back on my journey after having gained a huge amount of weight, and I'm subscribing to your blog. Hopefully I'll see you on mine sometime!
That does help, I'll keep it mind. Good luck, I'm sure you'll drop the weight and absolutely float off the ground.
ReplyDeleteI'll be sure to check your blog out once I'm home ^-^
Are you back from your trip? Can't wait to read about it!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny, as soon as I gave you this advice, I stayed at the same weight for like 4 days. Then I lost almost 3 lbs in the next two days.
I'm CONVINCED that it all evens out in the end!
