Feel like I want to cry and not in a good way. I'm gonna preface this with it being my TOM and just a whiny post. So feel free to ignore if you'd like!
I just want to be done. I want to be at my goal weight, I want to look nice, I want to feel good. I'm stuck and this is getting hard (that's what she said). I mean maybe I'm just sad because I've eaten salads the past three lunches in a row (even though they were delicious), or that I know I'm going to lose my diet bet that I started doing, or maybe its because the scale never moves anymore. Or maybe I'm sad because I look at everyone else's success stories and wonder why I can't do it too (even though I know I can, eventually). Maybe I'm sad because I cant have a candy cane hot chocolate. Or any chocolate. Or maybe its because I'm RAVENOUS right now but I don't want to eat because I want to make sure my calories are under 1400. Or maybe I'm sad because I am forcing myself to go do the elliptical at the gym after work but I have debilitating cramps and I am still sore from Tuesday's workout. Maybe I'm sad because I have been doing this for almost a year, and I've only lost 25 lbs and I plateau for months on end. Maybe I'm sad because I want to be able to lift every single day, and work out every single day, but I am so tired a lot of the time because I work 40+ hours a week.
Maybe I'm just sad because I feel I'm letting myself down.
*sigh*

I cried while listening to Because of You by Kelly Clarkson and Livin' Like a Prayer today on the radio. Hormones happen. Disappointments happen but you can be proud, and rest assured that all of us on FS are also proud of your accomplishments thus far. We will support you when you feel down and cheer you when you want to quit. You got this girl!!!
If you want to eat the chocolate, eat the chocolate. I say this because health isn't a journey. Health is a lifestyle. I was giving myself a hard time because I wanted to eat certain things and about 3 weeks ago I thought to myself, "I used to eat like this ALL THE TIME! I constantly fed myself full of awful things...and I am living a healthier lifestyle I'm not trying to punish my life."
If you want to "cheat" or "treat" yourself to something, remember, you are human. A King Size chocolate bar will feel like it will derail your progress but a piece of chocolate could be your fix or your gateway. You make the choice and know that I'm rootin' for ya!!!

I hear ya, I looked through your food and I think you are doing well, this just takes time...plus the closer you get to your goal, the harder it becomes...a lot of people adapt and change throughout the process...the smallest change can make the biggest difference, you just have to test the waters to find out what it is...you'll be ok, my dear :)

Yeah, I actually have a small loss from my last weigh in, I just need to remind myself to give it time. I also feel like its hard for me because I compare myself to people who have lost 100+ pounds, and its hard for me to grasp the concept that I have a lot less weight then them to lose. I'm only really looking to lose 50ish pounds total, so its hard when I see people who are able to lose 50+ pounds a year.

Yup, that's a good point....the more you have to lose, the more rapidly it tends to come off...that's why at the beginning you tend to lose more quickly...sheesh, I lost 6 pounds my first week...now I'm lucky to get a pound...

Yeah, in the first 7 weeks, I lost 10 pounds, and now it is definitely more of a struggle and I'm lucky if I lose anything for a few weeks.

It's frustrating.......I think a lot of "successes" come from being adaptable...at first I wasn't losing anything so I added some more carbs...that worked for a while....then plateau....then I really started watching my sodium intake...same thing...so then I added a little more fat...same thing and here I am Captain Plateau again...you're definitely not alone my darling!!! It'll happen, I suck at patience so I'm right there with ya!
