Feeling frustrated...

 I've been working so hard this week with absolutely no results. Yes, Father's Day weekend had some indulgence but I have really put my nose to the grindstone since then. I've been eating carefully, and exercising a lot(yesterday I put in 12km...6 and a 1/2 alternating running and walking in the morning and 5km walking in the evening as well as push ups and squats at home) everyday. The last two mornings I have been two pounds heavier. Now I know that I tend to retain water a lot in the morning(even though I have been drinking lots of water to keep things flushing), but it's such a bummer to see the numbers go up instead of down. :S I was really hoping to hit 10lbs lost by the end of this week and 12 by the end of this month and things are not heading in that direction. I am desperately trying to find motivation but all I'm finding is anger. Being hungry probably isn't helping my mood, but when the weight goes down suddenly you don't care about being hungry and it feels worth it. None of this feels worth it right now. :S
 Ok, enough of my "dear diary" grumpiness. No wallowing, I'm moving on! I WILL be down 12lbs by the end of the month! Just watch me! Grrrrr...... ;)

  2. My friend,

    My opinion...quit weighing yourself everyday...seriously. Once a week only. Muscle weighs more than fat for one...so if you are back to running and a bit of weighs it could have a barring on it. It can be a rollercoaster ride but stay focused and it will happen.

    1. I'm staying focused, even though it's hard...I know it will happen if I just keep at it. Weighing myself only once a week..hmmm...that would be a tough one...lol.
