ajsnoopy's Journal, 29 January 2010

Well, I initially thought I would do Atkins for 2 weeks, maybe 3, and then move onto a different type of diet. I thought losing weight quickly would help me get and stay motivated. It has been 3 weeks and I have lost 7 lbs.
I began working out about 2 weeks ago, and in my head I know I'm doing great things for my body, but I feel like I should feel the difference in my clothes, or something?!
Now I'm debating sticking with the Atkins awhile more, or switching to WW, or something else. I miss fruit! I miss a slice of peanut butter toast! I even miss oatmeal! What is wrong with me? LOL!
I am kind of in a slump I think...not really celebrating what I've accomplished, but worrying if the weight is shedding fast enough? Maybe it's my confidence that is slipping...

One of the biggest problems we have with weight loss is we put our weight loss expectations very high. You have lost 7 pounds in two weeks and that is really great. Most people who lose really fast, put it back on just as fast. Changing your habits takes time and you are doing fine. If you think of 1 pound as 4 sticks of butter, then just think of how many sticks of butter you have off your body with 7 pounds. Do whatever plan fits in to your lifestyle the best or maybe do a modified Atkins of WW. Keep realistic expectations and you will be at goal in no time. you are doing great.
