Alright, I lost some weight. I'm not really sure how I did it. I only went to the gym twice this weekend, and didn't do a whole lot. I did 30 minutes of cardio on Friday and an hour of cardio on Saturday. I took Sunday off because I had so much to do around the apartment, that I couldn't take the time to get to the gym.
Back to the grind this week. I'm going to try and go three or four times during the week, and then back to it on the weekend. Joe is trying to force me to have a Super Bowl party and have "healthy snacks." Which I don't mind, but it's the whole, having people over the apartment that is making me stressed.
I am happy about the loss. That puts me at 8 pounds for the month. I've decided to make some serious decisions about lunch no more Quick Chek wraps, I've gotten Lean Cuisines to eat. I brought some snacks with me, so hopefully, I'll be able to get through the week.
I think that my BC pill is making me retain water, and that's why I have been unable to really get some of the weight off. I was really bloated all last week, to the point that my ring and pants were all really tight. I took a water pill and that really seemed to help with the bloating. I'm not a huge advocate of that, but I just wanted to see, and it really helped.
Any way, I'm not celebrating yet. I will if I am able to get to my goal by February 15th of losing 15 pounds. I have just hit 8lbs, so we'll see what happens. I would like to maintain this downward trend, but my body may have different ideas.
Anywho, hope everyone had a good weekend and is healthy, happy, and on their way to their goals!

losing 2.8 lb a week
23 January 2013
Still stagnant. I really only started this three weeks ago. And a stall already. There really is nothing worst to bring your motivation down to zero. And now, it is frigidly cold outside. (It is 12 degrees, and with the wind chill factor, it feels like 1 degree outside). It's given me the excuse to stay indoors and under blankets.
Meanwhile, Joe only goes to the gym three times a week, and has lost 7lbs. My boss, just started going to the gym 10 days ago and has lost 13lbs. And reminds us everyday. Here I am, sitting at 5 pounds and gaining.
I know I've been down for a while, and people are trying to make me feel better. But I don't. I know the scale isn't the only way to measure success, but when it doesn't move, it really just brings you down. I'm actually up .2 today, and I'm really restraining myself from just getting a sledgehammer and smashing it to a million pieces.
I know that won't prove anything or fix anything, but it'll make me feel a lot better. Everyone around me is doing so much better than I. My best friend joined the gym the same time I did and she's lost like 8lbs, too. I really feel like crying and eating everything I see.
Everyone has told me that I wasn't eating enough. I was only eating between 700 and 800 calories a day, and that worked for me. Now I am eating between 1000 and 1100 calories a day, and I'm getting a good balance of everything, and nothing is changing. I feel like I am just stuck, while everyone else is surpassing me in every category.
I have always tried to be upbeat and positive about my weight loss journey. I have done this before, but what I know wasn't working. And what everyone else is telling me doesn't seem to be working either. It's like I'm destined to be fat because my body wants to be.
Clothes that I was able to fit into at the end of December, no longer fit me. I've had a pair of 29 waist jeans hiding at the back of my drawer since I've lost the weight, and now they are the only ones that fit me. I have two pairs of pants I can wear, and even those are tight. It's really breaking my heart.
Last time I had no real reason, other than my health and vanity, to lose the weight. Now I have a real reason. An expensive dress that I have to wear in almost 8 months. And I am so worried that it isn't going to fit me. I'm in tears almost every night. I'm having horrible nightmares about how I can't wear my wedding dress, and my mother has to pin bedsheets onto me because it's the only thing that is white that'll fit me.
I just need to get into the right headspace. I need some positive reinforcement, but unless that number lowers, I'm scared that I'm going to drive myself insane.
I don't know what to do.

gaining 1.4 lb a week

Only a miniscule loss. I am so confused.
I am eating well. I am not eating anything bad at all. Everything is adding to my overall health. No chips. No chocolate. Maybe a little extra sugar with my breakfast bar, but nothing that is extreme.
I was talking about it with my friend, and she seems to think that there is a correlation between my starting BC and my stall in losing. She told me that I might be holding onto water due to the pill. I have to do some research on it, but I don't know if I 100% buy it.
Otherwise, I am feeling okay. I am not as tired as I have been in the past. I still hate getting up in the morning, but I am not as tired as I have been around 2 or 3 o'clock. I have a lot of energy, and I am going hardcore at the gym. I am working out 5-6 days a week. I just wish I was seeing some more results.
Well, I hope that everyone is having a great week. Good luck and keeping working!!
