Thats all we can do, though. Everything we can is AS MUCH as we can do, so don't sweat it. If we keep going on plan and doing AS MUCH as we can, it'll happen. We just have to have patience.
I think that's the hardest part I've had to deal with. It's harder than giving up things that are bad for me, and all that. I've had to learn patience to lose the weight at the speed my BODY wants, not what my mind wants.
So, we will keep going, and as long as we are going as much as we can to get to goal, we will get there!!!
Hello, my weight has stayed the same these last few days, but I have not been watching what i eat. I ran 4 miles on Monday, that felt pretty good, but I took today off because I ran 5 days in a row. I've noticed that when I take a longer run I am really hungry, so I need to take special care in what I eat when I am feeling that way. Today I am experiencing my pre-menstaul munchie day, a few days pre I will feel like eating everything in sight. I don't have much self control in that situation either. I don't have high expectations for this week, but next week DH will be out of town and I am planning on South Beach Phase 1 while he's gone. One pound this week would be nice though.
Keep up the good work everyone!
Wow, everyone is doing so great! It's fair to say I'm a little envious of some of you big losers, but I am doing everything I can!
The beginning of the month was That TOM, so I'm a pound over my starting weight after the first week! I've been working out religiously, and staying under my net 1200 cals every day. I've been so good, next week I'm gonna lose 4 pounds! Right!? Ha.
After a week of watching my weight stay the same, I'm down a pound to 210. Not much of a loss, but I'll take it. I really thought I wasn't going to lose anything this week. Maybe I'll get a little whoosh next week. I've been completely OP and working out religiously, so it has to happen sometime.
Keep going, thistoo! That's a great attitude to have. That as long as we keep going, we will get there. Personally, I don't think its worth the stress to worry so much about it. I try for certain time frames, but I don't beat myself up about it, you know? The stress will only cause me to retain water! LOL, and we can't have that. It happens enough as it IS!
SW: 201.6
CW: 200.2 (Water weight is ALMOST GONE! I'm hoping tomorrow.
GW: anything below 197, lol
@ilovescience- be proud of what you have lost! I'm very envious of where you're at right now. Keep going, girl!
I had a hard day yesterday ... Just plugged along though, but had an intense urge to binge, but I didn't.
I had an argument with my hubby ugh. Men!!
But, still track and TOM , so hopefully by Mondays weigh in, I won't be bloated, etc.
Hope everyone's having a good Wednesday We've got pretty nice weather ... Snow expected later, but bo bitter cold, so I'll take it!
Thanks, Kate. I think you'll be back under 200 tomorrow
It seems like a lot of us are battling the 190s-210 range. For me it has been by far the most difficult to kick. My body doesn't seem to like being below 200 and I have to fight every day to keep losing. I need to put a big enough buffer between myself and that stupid 2.

I sure hope so, these ounces are REDONK!
And I was thinking that same thing yesterday. I couldn't, for the life of me, get past 220. It was like this magical barrier, a wall that took almost everything I had to go over it, and then it was fine until I hit another wall at 202-200. I'm slowly going past it, but I SO want to put it farther behind me I'm trying everything I can to do so, lol... But I'll totally still have sushi for lunch tomorrow, LOL. Sheesh. Come on, 195. I'll feel better then. And here I'm thinking 'oh no, I'm on my last month of bc pills (as I take seasonique) so I know that I'll have TOM at the end of this month' and then like, I'll be so sad when my water weight will creep that number back up again. GRR. SO I'm trying to have a larger buffer so I can minimize ever seeing that 2 again.
