    I am frustrated because of the severe osteoarthritis in my left knee that has finally decided to act up. :( I had a cortisone shot on Feb. 3 and it is kicking in now. I'm easing back into my walking (15 minutes) and DVD exercise (1 mile walk away the pound DVD). I'm going to do two 15 minutes walks at work tomorrow plus the DVD after work.

    Water weight. I feel that I can go up down back up then back down again - 5 to 7 lbs within a week's span! It's definitely not my fat fluctuating that much! And it effects the way my clothes fit since my water weight is always in my boobs, thighs and lower belly.

    Impatience. I know that I'm moving at a relatively speedy pace, weight loss wise, considering what is healthy. But it's so difficult to know that even if I do everything right, I won't be where I want to be for like a year. Maybe more. Argh!

    the weather. taking a toll on my motivation to do anything other than freeze.

    I've found the cold weather makes me want to exercise just to warm up. (And considering that the actual temp was -27 yesterday, I welcomed moving.) :)

    If I lose three more pounds, I will have reached the goal of 40 pounds down that I have been striving for ... for SIX YEARS. I've been playing with the same ten pounds, sabotaging myself, for the last year. Makes me sick to think about all that wasted effort and unhappiness that is my own damn fault.

    Also, 40 pounds in six years doesn't sound really terrific. Yeah, I lost it slowly so I'm less likely to gain it back, but some people on here lose 60 or 100 pounds their first year and ... never mind me, I'll just have a pity party over here in the corner. I'll be in a better mood tomorrow.

    I bought one pair of dumbbells to build muscle with, but I just don't like resistance training at all. It might be harder to burn fat without it, but I'll stick with cardio since that's what I enjoy.

    Anything I say will be construed as excuses for not being at goal by now. Needless to say, a lot of crap frustrates me.

    Give yourself some more credit!! 135lbs lost is absolutely AMAZING and very inspiring;)

    I can relate the the fluctuation, I have a bad habit of weighing everyday, I know it's not good but its a habit like anything else.

    The cravings. I can go on an awesome run, have a healthy filling lunch and then STILL really really really want all of the oreos.

    "Well you look smaller but you're still fat." - EVERY day.
    OR my other favorite, "You were SO skinny in high school. What happened?"- this at least once a week. Who are these quotes from? My mother.

    I think I should see some results from exercising for 5 weeks, but I'm not.

    Having to work just little harder than some because of PCOS.... Its frustrating to count every calorie, weigh all my food, work out 3-5 times a week and see only MINIMAL results. I also find it frustrating that I tend to Bulk up when lifting due to the PCOS as well....Frustration all around.

    I'm frustrated with my cravings and desire to eat all the time. I'm training myself to not mindlessly eat just because I'm sitting down work or because I'm bored.

    Being too busy to find time to work out. I know people say its all excuses, but recently at work I've really had to step it up working 70 hour weeks. I barely have time to cook healthy food. So I just wish that it was summer time so I had all the time in the world to go to the gym!

    And the snow. I had two snow days but we are totally snowed in, so I can't go to the gym, I just go up and down the stairs a bunch and do lots of cleaning and hope my roommates don't think I'm crazy.
