Weigh-in was 140. I am not going to lie, I was
when I saw that! I did awesome all week with my eating and I thought for sure Id see a loss. For the first 10-15 minutes of getting ready, I was still
, wanting to give up, wondering why I even bother working out, etc. Then I finally was able to get a grip and give myself a pep talk and remind myself that its not about the number on the scale, but about how I look. But my jeans are still snug and that has to stop. I absolutely refuse to buy new clothes until I am back to my comfort zone (135 or less). I am doing everything I can and if I dont start seeing some results by the end of August, I am throwing in the towel. That doesnt mean Im going to go off the deep end and eat myself into oblivion, but that means I will stop actively trying to lose weight. Ive been at it for over a year and I weigh more than ever.
And I know I have more muscle, but I am definitely not as thin as I used to be. My body is a mess from the waist down and I dont know what else to do. I do everything youre supposed to!
OK, enough of the whining, time to get on with my day. Yesterday I drank 96.9oz of water, 2 cups green tea, 18oz Diet Fuze, and a DC:
6:15am: Chocolate Oatmeal
8:30am: FF Yogurt; Cantaloupe
11:30am: Veggie Burger w/Spinach on Low Carb Wheat Tortilla; 10 Baby Carrots
2:30pm: 3 Egg Whites; Blueberries; 10 Peanuts
4:30pm: Pumpkin; 2 Crème Savers
6:30pm: Leftover EFL Green Chili Soup; Low Carb Wheat Tortilla w/Strawberry Rhubarb Jam; FF/SF Pudding
WORKOUT: None
RESISTED: Mrs Mays, Trail Mix

Amy, I got the Morningstar Farms brand and even DH liked them! I'll definitely try some more. They also have some veggie patties at Costco that I tried that were REALLY good. I should have bought some, but the cart was already overflowing...
You were right about the scale, this week was NO loss! It's amazing that last week I was so thrilled to see 140 and this week I am absolutely furious to see 140. Yep, I need medication...
Anna, I am toying with the idea of weighing myself more often again. I definitely want to get out of the 3x a day habit, but I don't think once a week is going to cut it. Maybe every other morning or something. I still haven't decided yet. I also have a problem eating just one bag of Mrs Mays, but it is definitely easier to resist when you see that 1 bag is 200 calories and there is no way to justify eating another one!
Tracey, the scale is lucky it is still in one piece... I am very happy I had that surgery to stop my periods. I was really having problems so it was definitely worth it!
