I am having the hardest time losing weight in my life. I've gained and lost significant amounts in the past. Dropping and gaining 50-70 lbs. In the past year I have had some short motivated weeks of trying but have given up after about 3 weeks so I don't expect to see any major improvements.
I signed up for a gym in the first week of November. I have been going about 4-5 times a week. I am not counting calories to the dot but just trying to be aware of what I am eating. My goal is 1450 but I am sure I am going over a little bit but I figure I am not including those calories I burned during exercise and I also think 1450 is low for what I weigh. Also, my snacks aren't anything crazy. Like I am not over eating the calories by a whole bag of chips. It may just be a handful of like grain/could-be-mistaken-for-birdseed chips or a string cheese. My meals are pretty healthy as I am trying to stick to whole foods and nothing really processes.
I know what I need to do to lose weight. I've done it before but this time it just doesn't seem to be working. I have had a party almost every weekend since I started this time and have had a lot of wine. I try to counter those parties by not eating anything before except 2 eggs for breakfast so I am not starving.
I've lost 7.3 lbs since 11/6. I guess I should be happy with that progress but I feel like most of those pounds came off in the first few weeks and now these past 3 the scale has just gained and lost the same 2-3lbs. This is so frustrating
