Still chugging along...

I haven't fallen off the band wagon yet! I'm still regularly attending my WW meetings and working out. I have just been struggling to move past losing/gaining the same 3-4 pounds. I'm still only down 19lbs after 32 weeks on program. At this rate of loss it will take me 3.5 years to get to goal. How damn depressing is that? *hint* EXTREMELY!!!! Ugh

Still Losing

I'm down 4.8lbs since my last post. I don't understand why I have lost so much weight. I have only been working out sparsely. I have made an effort to track EVERYTHING I eat so maybe its working. Let's just hope this downward trend continues!

I'm Still Alive

I am so frustrated with Weight Watchers. I think the program works, I just don't think it works for me. I have been on the program since June and I have only lost 15lbs. I know most people will see losing any weight as a point in the programs favor but the math just doesn't add up. I'm averaging a .5lb loss; which is horrible. I wouldn't be so aggravated if I didn't see myself working so much harder than everyone else for these mediocre results. I wouldn't be so disheartened if I didn't have another 70+ pounds to lose =(

I'm Back

I cant believe it has almost been a MONTH since my last post!!!

I am still attending my Weight Watchers meetings regularly and exercising as usual. I hit a bit of a rough patch in the middle of October. I went on vacation for 5 days and it totally ruined my momentum. I ate poorly, drank way too much and didn't exercise while I was gone. As a result I gained around 2 lbs. I was devastated but not surprised. My vacation also broke my rhythm so to speak and it was very hard to get back into the routine of working out and eating right.
The 2 lb gain was hard to handle considering it took me about three weeks to lose those pounds prior to leaving. I am happy to report that I was able to get back on track and as a result I have lost 5lbs. I am really excited and hope I can keep up this level of loss. My progress has been so slow; it is very discouraging. I look at my goal weight and how far I have to go and it is hard to imagine that I will ever cross that bridge. I will keep on chugging along in the hopes that eventually I will lose all this weight! Ugh!

HELP

Well I knew it would happen eventually but I am surprised it took so long. I haven't posted in 3 weeks!! I'm going to contribute that fact to my struggles with losing these past weeks. I have no desire to taut my accomplishments, mainly because I don't feel that I have accomplished anything. I have lost .2 lbs three weeks in a row. WTF! I know we have a tendency to over estimate how much "work" we put into something but I think I've been working pretty hard these past weeks. I wake up at 4:00am every weekday so I can go to the gym before work. When I get home from work I spend a good hour making dinner and all my meals/snacks for the next day. I don't go over my DPT or use many of my weekly points. I just don't understand why I am not losing significant amounts of weight. I am so frustrated and I want to quit! What good is all of this work if it reaps no benefits. I am human after all. I HATE waking up so damn early, but I do it because I know I need to exercise.  I am determined to make this my last "attempt" at weight loss. I want the extra weight to be gone forever. These "setbacks" are NOT HELPING!! I am lost, I don't know what to do.

Victory

I have FINALLY made my 5% goal!!!! I'm down 15lbs! It has taken me 15weeks. It feels like it has taken forever! I'm really excited and just can't wait for more of this weight to fall off!!
I'm still working out 5x a week and think that has helped a lot. I need to spend more time preparing my food this upcoming week.
