I am completely bummed about my weigh in today...no lbs lost. After only losing one pound last week, it was very disappointing. I know we shouldn't have unrealistic expectations, but my feelings were: all that planning, all that hunger, all that denying myself...all for nothing. In the 1.5 hours since my weigh in, I have gone back and forth from tears, to telling myself I'm a total failure, to being mad, to being determined to do better, back to tears, etc., etc...I really don't know how I feel right now! My coach (who is only there about every other week) gave me some suggestions of things that I probably did wrong and what to change, but the overall impression I got was that I should not have screwed up like that, so I better straighten up and do it right next week. I'm being oversensitive, but I really don't know her that well yet, and that is how she made me feel.
Thanks for letting me vent. And to be fair, if I step back and look at the big picture, I have lost 19 pounds over 5 weeks, and that's nothing to sneeze at. But still....it's disappointing.
