I've always been active, dancing, running cross country and then running with the army. I've also always struggled with weight. For the last few years I've been struggling with back and hip pain. I was put on steroids and very restricted with working out. Now that I've finally gotten pain under control and can work out again I was all excited that I could take the weight off and get back on top of things. Only problem is, it's not working that way. In high school I was sitting around 150-155 lbs and although I was heavier than what I wanted to be, I was still happy with my body.
I'm currently in the 195-(ek!)200 lb range. I try my best to not go over 200 but no matter what I do I can seem to get my weight down. I've reduced my calorie intake, the only steroids I'm on is my epidural shots and I work out as much as I can with work, school etc. I usually get a run in two to three times a week, and I do the 30 day shred with Jillian Micheals and her Yoga Meltdown too.
I have to lose weight for the army and for myself. I'm just so frustrated because the scale isn't budging.
I feel so alone sometimes and thought that maybe talking to other people would help. As much as my fiance tries to help, he can drop weight whenever he wants with minimal effort.
Any advice, encouragement, or success stories would be amazing.
I'm so tired of carrying this extra weight...
