OK, I don't really want to be a whiner, but I do need some support.
I have lost 15 pounds since I found all of you five weeks ago, and even fit into a much smaller size late last week, but this week has been just aweful. I can't stop eating. I keep journaling, but my WW journal is now something crazy like -14 points. I don't know what my problem is. I have been stressed lately (my DH has been really , and the potty trained two year old has had a huge relapse, so I'm doing laundry twice a day).
I don't know if it is because I was really sick last week and didn't eat hardly anything. But last night I actually ate so much that I felt sick and extremely bloated. I weighed myself this morning and was up 7 pounds since Monday. Is that really possible? I've really been getting in my water, but craving a real soda and lemonade (I think it's the time of year).
This is my first true weight loss journey. Before, I would just start exercising and then stop. I have a minigoal that I know now is impossible to reach (10% - 24 pounds gone by Labor Day, and still had 8 more to go on Monday). And another that I think is just too far off still (200 pounds by the week before Thanksgiving, 19 more to go as of Monday).
I guess I'm just feeling kind of frustrated too, I feel like I am going to do all of this work lose 15 pounds and then turn around and gain it back in a week. What's the point? Before I started on this journey, I was at least status quo, not gaining anymore.
Well, that is it for my feeling sorry for myself. Sorry, I just had to tell someone!
