Forcing myself to be honest, this is where I usually get bummed and fall off the wagon!

I am sooo confused. the scale is WAY back up again for me. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? yesterday I ate perfectly on plan and did my first day of the couch to 5k and still the scale is letting me down. I think it's because I weighted in a 8am this morning just after rolling out of bed and yesterday when I was down to a weight I liked to see on the scale I weighed in at almost lunch time cause IWas running around all morning.

Darn! I am up higher than I started! What is this?

This could be due to the alcohol I had Friday, the 3 cookies I had Saturday, or the watermelon I ate Sunday (b/c I eat it with a lot of salt--but I only used a little bit of salt yesterday mindful of water gain)

Or it could be close to TOM--I never know now--as I am soooo PeriMen.

Oh, HONESTLY. :dizzy:

ARGH.

What is it about the 170s and 160s that are just a Bermuda Triangle for me????? Last week I ate on plan all week, made it to the gym 5 out of 7 days. Saturday was my "don't track" day - but even so, I wasn't excessive.

Today's numbers:
SW: 163.4
CW: 167.2 (+3.8)
GW: 158.4

What the *&@#^$(*&@^#?????

Argh, argh, argh. My 170s were like this too. It took me 2 months of up and down and back and forth. I mixed things up, added HIIT to my workouts, changed up my weight lifting and raised my calories. Began to drop again. Then hit 165-167 and I'm back where I was - bouncing back and forth with the same 5lbs.

This is the FRUSTRATING part of all of this and I so understand why it makes people want to give up. I want to say "my body just wants to be at 165, so screw it, I'm staying here". But I know that's not true. I know that eventually I'll drop again ... and I may go through this same thing AGAIN in the 150s ... and in the 140s. I suspect the closer I get to my goal, the harder and harder this will be.

I know it's normal. I know I can get through this. I know it will happen for me. But for CRYING OUT LOUD .... I really don't like this part.

Argh.

(Thank you for reading my vent! :D )

Still holding steady, but I'm happy.

I know you're feeling so frustrated, Photochick, but I can also remember the days when you never believed you'd see a 1-6. Keep the hope, we know you can do it. You've lost SEVENTY POUNDS. That's 30% of your starting body weight, and 65% of your goal completed. You're already a winner, and you can definitely get there!

Vikki - I'm sure you were talking to photochick, LOL

I hope I'm not up too much tomorrow - DH made supper - fried eggs and french fries... aarrgghh

It is crazy! we were all running through these challenges like crazy and now half of us are all gaining it back!! hahahah.. SHEESH

The comment still stands, as I've watched both on their journey.
