SO last week I decided I realy want to lose this weight already!! I lost 5lbs like 2 months ago& decided I want to kick it up a notch and really get it all off me! So I started last week at 245.0 and I lost 4 lbs in the 1st 5 days w/o exercising, just counting calories and watching what I ate very carefully. So on Sunday I weighed myself & decided I wont weigh myself till Friday. & decided I would incorporate exercise now. I went to 2 spin classes at my gym 6 am for 45 mins, 2 days this week & the other 2 days I did the step aerobics class for 1 hour each. My body is soo sore!! On top of working out like a nut, I ate so incredibly clean all this week, no more then 1250 cals a days and everything was super lean, fresh and healthy.
SO this morning I get on the scale & it barely budged! Thats 5 days of busting my butt and eating like a saint and only .2lbs down. I cant help but feel so sad & discouraged and debating weather or not to go on some crazy diet to drop 20lbs off me FAST. I'm on unemployment and it ends Oct 28th & I wanted to at least be in the teens before I go back to work bc I'm extremely insecure& shy and I feel my weight always interfered with my work performance, so I wanted to drop some weight to feel more confident.
I got laid off a while ago and when I got laid off I was 290lbs. I did this starvation diet called the bead diet for 28 days and lost 31lbs! I kept it off & then went to healthy eating and exercising and its take me months to lose just 15lbs, but the reason for that is bc I would lose some weight then cheat & be off diet for 2 weeks, gain what I lost then repeat that vicious cycle.
I dont want to do that again, I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't repeat all the same mistakes Iv done in the past that has held me up for the past 6 months. I really want to push hard & lose this dang weight already!!!
SO what is the problem??? I know on tv shows like the biggest loser, they say the 2nd week is always the toughest week bc your bodies in shock & being resistant. DO you think that could be it??
I just find it hard to apply that to myself bc the 1st week I didnt workout or cut my cals really low, I just watched what I ate and didnt think about it. But this week, I count cals like a champ, workout like a crazy woman and pretty much no weight loss.
I dunno what to do anymore. Thanks for reading
