    That I have about 30lbs to lose and I'm trying harder than I ever have before and I'm only losing about 1/2lb a week.. I would love the weight to fall off now.


    The fact that even when I reach my goal week I will still have to keep track of what I'm eating / doing so I don't gain back.


    That I have a lot of college work to do so I can't focus completely on working out.


    That my lovely new jeans still don't fit..

    I'm a bit frustrated that I've practically wasted January just trying to get back to my pre-Christmas weight rather than making inroads into new pounds. It was a conscious decision to have a non-diet Christmas but now that it's all over and forgotten it's easy to wonder was it worth it?

    Changing habits in the way of cooking new meals. Learning to buy new ingredients and making something out of the super-easy-bad-for-you norm. It's frustrating only because it's new. Once I find some great new veggie recipes, I'm sure I'll be celebrating!

    NOT 100% sure of calorie counts on homemade foods. I do a lot of healthy cooking, and not sure how to determine how many calories are really in a cup of homemade lentil vegetable soup.... I think it's thrown me off.. ALOT...

    I so agree with you, Bluesrockerman. Let's trust ourselves and keep going.

    That I used to be around 10-12% body fat at 205 and now I am the size of a small pickup truck. What makes it worse is that I only have myself to blame and now its a long way to get there. Its worth the hard work to get back there, but crappy that I gave up what I had.

    Only having 15-20 pounds left to lose (After having lost 100) and seeing the same 3 pounds drop and then come back again- a complete halt in progress. I can only blame myself, as my motivation waxes and wanes. The problem is that I feel OKAY with how I look, so I'm complacent about losing more so I can go from okay to fantastic, until I see the scale creeping up and then I'm motivated again. I already am healthy and pretty fit, because exercise is a habit for me and one that I enjoy, but my eating habits can be bad at times, enough to stop me from losing.

    I seem to get a "mid-week" bloat going on, every week consistently. No matter what I ate the night before (or days before) something happens mid week - like right now - where I am holding onto every drop of liquid in my body. I get sausage fingers where I can't even get my rings on or off, and I get an extra half inch or so in my waist measurements. This is despite gorging myself on bottle after bottle of water and a few cups of green tea, and not having to run to the bathroom as often as one would think. I literally gain 4 - 5 pounds and it takes days for my body to let it all go. Very frustrating. I don't salt anything, I stay away from processed foods... I just don't get it.

    That I wake up some days or go to bed some nights SUPER friggin hungry!!! Also, that depending on which calculator I use it shows my fat % different every time :( The worst is that when I started out and I was single I was sooooo much more dedicated to what I ate, ate cleaner and worked out twice as hard....Now I'm not as picky bout what I eat as long as it fits :( Not sure if it's the program last time vs. this time or what I eat, but i'll tell you that I'm 3 pounds lighter than this time last yr and I looked a hell of a lot better last yr!!!!

    Injuries frustrate me. I pulled a stomach muscle and it put me out of commission for a week. My knees sometimes won't let me do not one squat. UGH! I try to push but I don't want to permanently hurt myself so I'm just patient but it's frustrating sometimes.

    I started off slowly, beginning with swimming laps, and I was just starting to ramp up my workouts when I hurt my back/pinched a nerve over the weekend, which pretty much put the kibosh on that little endeavor for the next week or so. That is fairly frustrating, to say the least....

    That stomach fat is always the last thing to go away! Lovin my arms and legs and rear...wow what a huge improvement! But my stomach fat just seems to want to stay put. Weird.

    That it's almost the end of January and I've lost 1 pound this month. I can't seem to find that calories in/calories out sweet spot where the weight just falls off. SO FRUSTRATING!!


    Me too! I just bought a fitbit over the weekend to help with that. Hopefully it'll work.

    My extreme desire to eat! I'm having such a hard time changing my mindset. Reminding myself (especially when I'm not hungry) that I don't need food to make me feel good.

    YESSSSS! Exactly my thoughts
