I won't be frustrated, I won't be frustrated, I won't be frustrated...but I gave up wine, my calories are low, I've been walking every day, what the heck?
I really buckled down this week and stayed right on track, so I guess my expectations to get into the 180s were high. I know it will come off, I can't eat like this and remain at 193 for long, right? I'm reaching a critical point where I need some good losses to keep me moving forward. I'm really tired of dieting...not the food part really, I am so used to eating this way now, but I'm tired of the feeling that I'm not there yet. I want the mindset of maintaining, and not always striving for a goal weight. Eight months of this is exhausting when the scale isn't budging.
However, it is exhilarating when the losses come, so I will stick with it. I'm less that 30 lbs from my goal, and when I started on March 10 I was 84 lbs from my goal. Wow, that's pretty great! I can do this. I'm hoping to do it in under a year.
Enough about the stupid scale, it's not that interesting to read about numbers like this. I'm excited to go for a hike with my FS buddy this morning. I woke to a chilly Phoenix morning, haven't felt it this cool in the morning since April. It's going to be beautiful in the mountain park today. Have a great Saturday, my friends!

So glad you are hiking with Buddy today - that shoudl be fun! I have many of the same feelings as you. I started April 1st and have 21 pounds until goal - but know I will probably add another 10-15 to my loss goal...just take one step at a time and enjoy the transformation. It is not a diet - but a life change, right?

Totally a life change! But I want that change to be maintaining my fabulous weight loss, shopping for clothes that I can keep for more than a few months, and just be satisfied. It feels like I'm never satisfied, like i just need to keep striving for more weight loss. I know I will get there. Hiking with Erin today was so fun! What a beautiful morning in Phoenix.

I thought you might be meeting up with her! Cool - I wish I was there, too. It is dreary, rainy and looking very Minnesota "winter is coming" up here these days! I know how you feel - I am getting a bit impatient to "get there" as well, but I realize what does "there" mean for me? I cannot go back and eat what I want, I cannot dtop exercising - but I suppose the relief is being less rigid...not sure. I just know THIS time I am not stopping to get to where I feel the best!

I totally understand the feeling of not being there yet. I think the first time around I was losing weight I stalled out too around the 190s, for a few months I think. I hike would be great. We here in SoDak are getting our first snow of the year as I type this. Look out HCB, it's coming to you next I bet!

Calorie cycling does have some science - metabolically our bodies adjust to particularly caloric intakes over time and become efficient t that level. Low calorie diets cause you to need to go lower and lower to continue to lose - not realistic. Calorie cycling is more about eating say 900 for one week, 1400 for a week, 1000 for a week, then maybe 1200 for a week. Some people also carbohydrate cycling - but that does not work for me t all! I don't calorie cycle - but will have an occasional "high" day followed by a couple lower days to try to budge the scale - good luck!

Snow, ewwww. It was beautiful in Phoenix this morning, but chilly and cloudy and sprinkly this afternoon. We don't get much rain, a sprinkle here and there is a major storm in the Valley of the Sun. Thanks for the calorie cycling info, I think there are a lot of ways to lose weight, and it's so complicated what is happening inside our bodies. If calories in/calories out was actually real, none of this other stuff would matter. Sitting home alone on Saturday night, sigh...better than being with the wrong man, I guess. Time for some Boardwalk Empire and popcorn...oh wait, no popcorn.
