Heya Everyone!!!
I need to start posting again for some accountability.
Targetingthin - Don't worry keep working and soon you'll be getting over that plateau. It can be tough to squeeze in workouts when you're super busy. Do you have any home workout tapes or something? IF you watch TV, try doing some pushups/squats/sit ups or jumping jacks or something during commercials... Even small 10min workouts here and there add up...
Zelzel - Welcome!
sh315 - Hey it might only be 2.6lbs, but it's still 2.6lbs down! Maybe you're gaining some muscle? you never know... Somethings loss slows down, but at least it's going down.
just keep swimming - Oh well, weekends are always hard food wise (at least for me)... As for the going vegan thing, um, don't do it, unless you are prepared to spend a LOT of time planning out very balanced meals. I think veganism can be done in a healthy way, but it takes a lot of work (I'm a vegetarian myself also). As a diet tool, I don't think it's necessarily the best idea.
shantroy - That sucks. Knee problems and shin splints? I wish I knew more about what you could do to fix that... Some "injuries" just can't be changed. I know my mom has some major foot problems and she can't run anymore. And my friend has a habit of twisting her ankle very seriously, so she doesn't do many sports where she might hurt it. Sorry, I'm not very encouraging am I? But you're still getting out and doing stuff, so that's amazing! Keep it up!
mojolove - Don't let the scale dictate your day! And don't let it bring you down. It's just a number, sometimes it's related to your salt intake or your water intake, or sometimes it's just completely randome! Stick on plan and maybe you'll see a giant leap down soon!
As for me, things are okay. I'm at a new university and I'm loving it. I'm pretty busy, but not with school stuff yet. Hopefully soon I'll be super busy! I like being a busy busy bee.
I'm working out and eating okay, so hopefully I can keep it up. I keep worrying that I'm going to gain weight. I don't want to measure or step on a scale incase it's higher than what I was last time I weighed in/measured. That's silly b/c it's good to keep an eye on that, so I don't backslide, but I just...can't? What do you think? Should I just do it?
