Okay...please don't interpret this as a whine session, because it's not. But, I'm getting frustrated that I cannot really seem to have better losses than 1 lb at a time (which I know is okay but after I feel like I work really hard in the week to do everything "right", it is frustrating to keep having these low numbers). I have had a few 2-lb-loss weeks, but very few and mostly 1 lb losses.
Now, I know the typical response is "slow is a good thing." But, I don't want to creep into home base either.
My main point for this thread? I don't want to let this frustration and discouragement take root. I know this is a therapeutic place, and I know if I can confront my feelings about this here I will do much better by just getting it off my chest. This is not a beg for a pat on the back, etc., but I wanted to sound off and then get maybe some ideas of what you have done to help yourself keep a positive attitude about this as well as make your weight loss happen at a little faster pace. I don't have to have 5-lb losses or anything, but I would like to have steady 2-lb losses.
I'm sorry for rambling...I'm just wanting to head this feeling of frustration off right now before it gets out of hand (as it has so many times in the past and thus the reason I fell of the wagon )
Thanks, my dear friends! I know you will understand where I'm coming from and have great words of wisdom about this.
Hope everyone has a great OP day!!
