This week I lost 2.5 lbs. I just mostly watched what I ate and didn't exercise at all. I know I need to get back to exercising if I want to have long-term success, so I'm going to try and walk and ride bikes this week.
I get frustrated because I'm impatient to lose weight NOW. But I just realized the other day that when I get down 12 more pounds, I'll have lost 40 total in the last 2 years -- half way to my goal weight. So I need to stay positive. It has to be enough that I'm going in the right direction.
I'm hoping this week to get down below 200. We can do thisssssssss!!!!!
I'm not just saying this because I always say this, but I'm the same way. I used to be so good with losing a pound or two a week, and then not losing for a week, and then a pound or two a week….but now I want to lose 3 or 4 every week or I get frustrated and feel like a failure. It is so hard for me to be patient. I feel like I gained this all in about 6 months of pregnancy with Vivian and I feel liek I've tried to lose it so many timesin the last 3 years. I'm hoping that now that I've gone back to my old tried and true (for me) plan that I can see numbers drop every week. Keep motivating me!!!!
