OK, yes I know plateaus are something that are weeks long, but typically, my weight changes (usually and hopefully for the better) everyday, by a few ounces. my weight this morning is EXACTLY what it was yesterday morning, which is extremely unusual for me. I think my weekend really messed me up, even though I thought I did well, because last week, I was for sure going to reach my 195 goal by this thursday, and now it’s going to be a super challenge. I really didnt think I got off track this weekend, but I guess I did. But the bigger point is that I was 100% on track yesterday, drank a TON of water, and went to the gym, and my weight didnt change an OUNCE, which is frightening for me, because thats not how my body is, at all.
so, I’m not sure if the issue is a carb issue, (i have been eating carbs at every meal, KGL, Whole Wheat Bread, and Brown rice or whole wheat pasta) but they have ONLY been whole wheat carbs. nothing white. ugh, i just thought I was doing so well. I’m not really sure what to change. i just dont know, and that’s so frustrating. well, today I’m going to try to pack a snack instead of the fiber1 bar, because that’s quite processed, but I really doubt that that is the cause of my “plateau”. argh! and last week i was SO easily going to hit 195.
Super Sigh, ANY ADVICE?
