I lost 9lbs the very first week I changed my eating lifestyle. I wasn't counting calories or dieting, just eating healthy foods in moderate amounts. The next week I gained a pound and now I'm just stuck here. What's going on? The second week I had just finished having my period and yesterday I just finished a 10 day course of prednisone. Do you think any of that has anything to do with this weirdness? Like I've said in previous posts, I'm not in this to lose weight rapidly....I'm doing this to get healthy. Right now I feel fantastic, very energetic....my skin looks great...I just feel good overall. I can't excercise until this ankle effusion is completely resolved, but I thought I'd still see some difference on the scale.
I'm trying to stay positive and focus on how good I'm feeling, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disapointed about the whole weight thing. Last night my husband brought home pizza and wings and I could feel that little voice saying..."go ahead have some, your not losing weight anyway!"
I fixed myself a nice big turkey burger instead, but I'm still feeling a little down. Any thoughts?
edited to add: My husband (who left me) only left for a day and came back. He has agreed to go to counseling. I'm having mixed emotions about the whole thing right now, but trying to focus on my health.
