So I don’t think this week even qualifies as a weight loss since it’s so inconsequential that had I sneezed while the wii calculated, we might have gotten weight-gain. But alas, it’s better than seeing the opposite I suppose. I will admit that I am getting a bit fed up with not seeing progress, especially considerable progress.
I am doing all the same things I’ve been doing and I know I have to take things up a notch but I can’t seem to find the motivation/energy to do so. And yet, I am so not ready to give up on those last 10 pounds. I am annoyed at the amount of work I am doing without results. But I also know this is forever work and I will just keep doing it. I am pretty much on a routine now and I am not walking away from this.
Not ever.
Because I’ve already put in so much effort and time and sweat into this and I refuse to watch it unwind. I think this is more of a talking-to to myself than anything but sometimes that’s what I need so here we are. It’s week 29 and I am barely past the halfway point so we keep going!
and here’s this week’s card:
Healthy for Life is a weekly project for 2011. You can read more about it here.
I found the podcast Dishing Up Nutrition from Cathy Z. blog and it has great info on eating to lose weight. I have the same problem with weight loss and this has helped.
thank you!! I just downloaded, will listen tomorrow while I do art 🙂
So you reached a plateau. And you continue and then one day you get on the scale and you wonder how it happened that when you weren’t looking, you lost five of the last ten. No biggie. At least you aren’t gaining all of it back. Hang in!
I read something good from Jillian Michaels re plateaus…she said eat 10% more and take a couple days rest and love yourself 🙂 I have to say I like the sounds of that 🙂 Keep on trucking your doing great! and PS. I love your art work!
thank you so much! I think you’re actually right, i do need to eat more. certainly more protein!
