    Shans, -2 is excellent for loss! I think you are being too hard on yourself. Life is not a race, the weight didn't come on quick and we cannot reasonably expect it to come off quick, KWIM? Enjoy your life, be kind to yourself, and don't allow small setbacks or results you wish to have, but don't, discourage you. Okay?

    Feeling: determined to make this my best week in a while!

    Day 36:
    Didn't sleep well last night, but have a lot to do today, so not sure a nap is in the cards.
    Meal: depends on weather. Either BBQ steak or bacon wrapped chicken breast. Sided with mushroom rice and broccoli.
    Exercise: laying stone today. I got more gravel for my backyard, so that. Just dance, yoga, weights and much walking.
    Feeling: good. I hope today will be a great day.

    Day 38:
    Doing good today! It's raining so I'm primarily in the house today. That's ok, I'll keep busy.
    Meal: shepherds pie.
    Exercise: yoga, weights, just dance, lots of walking and a copious amount of housework! My kids seem to think just doing enough to get by is satisfactory. It's not. So since my 3 eldest kids are 15, 13, and 11, there really is no excuse other then they are lazy. So I'm going to clean the house too to bottom and then take pictures of each room. I will then print those pictures and hang then in each room showing the kids what my expectations are and what the consequences will be if they don't meet them. I'm going to be looking for work in September when my 4 year old goes to school and I graduate university. So I need them to step up. I have until then to whip those kids into shape!
    Feeling: driven!
    Have a good one all.

    Shans, as a mom of two grown children, I find myself both sympathizing and laughing. Oh, the days of trying various ways to get full compliance! Sounds like you're doing well there, Momma!

    Hope you have another great day today! :)

    Day 39: weigh in today yielded only a 1 lb loss! So 284lbs!
    Meal: splurge day
    Exercise: walking, maybe yoga, housework
    Feeling: well....I was 283 earlier this week. Somehow I gained weight in a couple of days. Figures. I'm really frustrated! I don't have a choice here! I have to lose weight or risk loosing everything I value. I'm frustrated, discouraged, angry and every other emotion I can muster at this point! I work my *kitten* off! Literately! Every damn day!!! I walk more then 10k steps, I cook and clean for my family. I chase a 4 year old. I do just dance every day. I do 150 stomach crunches, 50 squats among 20mins of yoga. I eat one meal and am under my calorie goal every time. I measure and weigh my food! I do every friggin thing a person should do and this is the result!!!! God damnit!!!!!
    So yeah...

    Joe says we aren't supposed to do anything but walking until we get closer to our goal weight...Maybe try just doing that for a while and see if it makes a difference...I hate to see you getting frustrated, you've come so far already and I hope you don't give up now (Hugs) o:)

    I agree with Brenda. May be your body is stressed with so much workout. Give it some rest. Stress cn really mess up your weight loss phenomenon.

    Put your body in a relaxed state and you will see better losses.
