Just got a feeling that this week is not going as well as the last two. I don't feel as well as I have the two previous weeks and I'm not as optimistic as the last two. I still have two days until weigh-in but I'm not expecting a big drop on the scale. I've had two weeks with big drops so it's probably time for a slow week but I'm hoping the losses will continue. I've lost 15 lbs and it's starting to scare me because this is the point I always get to (granted it has always taken me a month or two to lose this much before) before I completely stop losing weight. I don't want this new eating plan to be like every diet and exercise plan I have tried before. I have such high hopes this time around because I'm not starving myself and I've made changes that I can live with for a lifetime, not short term diets.
Maybe it's my depression rearing its ugly head again, and maybe everything will be fine on Friday. I've followed my eating plan every single day, I've never gone over my allowed calories and my net carbs have been under 100 every single day as planned. My total carbs have been under 100 every day except 2. Those would have been under as well but the Subway nutritional database was a tiny bit misleading.
The calculate your own sandwich thing does not have 6" and footlong selections for flatbread so when I chose flatbread, I figured the nutritional information was for the way the flatbread comes, the footlong. I got a sandwich in the flatbread and plugged in the values. Subway later informed me that he thought those values were actually for the 6" portion. (I didn't even know flatbread CAME in a 6" portion.) Anyway, so I had to go back and adjust my serving sizes and it threw my total carbs over by 9 for two days, but my net carbs remained under 100 for both days.

You're doing a great job! Do not fear...slow and steady is the way to go and you are doing it...every day, every week. And hang in there...depression comes and depression goes. And you are going to have good days followed by bad days followed by good days. And sticking to your plan is just what your mind and body need. Your friends, cheerleaders, and supporters are only a click away!!

Thank you, I think that's just what I need to hear and that's why I joined this site. I need the motivation and support that I've found here, especially when my depression starts trying to tell me.. give up, you'll never be thin again, you can't do this...the kind of thing I've been told my whole life.

I think its normal to get discouraged at times. Fact is, subway threw you off but you still put in the effort and learned from it. You didn't give in, you just had a mix up which will happen. Regardless of what you see on the scale, you're getting healthy by making smart choices. Think of your accomplishments so far that go beyond weight loss. Its just as important that your mind is in the right place and you CAN do this! Keep it up girl!
