Finally!!
 

I've been having a rough time, lately. With traveling and being out of my routine I've found it exceptionally difficult to stay 100% OP for a while and my results were showing it. I was putting in a lot of effort, just not enough apparently. The scale's just bouncing up and down and back up again. They claim I've lost up to 12 inches but I haven't really noticed in how my clothes fit or anything and I was just getting worn down by the whole thing.

Sherral, when you talked about having a "mini-tantrum" I was right there with you. Last Friday, I was in tears at the center because I was just so overwhelmed with it all. The center counselors were helpful although I was still fairly upset when I left Friday. But it was enough for me to stay focused over the weekend. I went in and weighed Monday just to see if there was improvement. I was down 1/2 pound from the Friday weigh so that helped my attitude. Also one of the counselor's called (while I happened to be there) to check on me Monday as well which also made me feel more positive toward the program. And finally, yesterday I noticed some progress.

During Zumba yesterday I realized that there wasn't nearly the usual amount of jiggle from the junk in the trunk. When I first started it was pretty distracting to have the fat wiggle one way while the hips went the other. Yesterday, not so much jello action happening.

So, for anyone who is discouraged, I've been there but it's getting better.

Glad to hear it Nicmom, there is hope for us!!!

BTW do tantrums burn calories? lol :lol:

yes I've been there already too! I'm losing so slowly that it's hard to stay positive but I'm trying each and every day for sure and its so nice to know I'm not alone and the scale may not be our friends but it seems the tape measure is right now, lol.. hang in there, we will make it!!! :)
