... I seem to have STOPPED losing.
How do you all get past being disappointed and disheartened?????
Very frustrating indeed!
I feel as though I'm simply at a "stand still"!

I know this sounds weird, but sometimes increasing your calories momentarily helps your body start to lose weight again. I get through frustration by telling myself that I'm becoming more healthy even if I'm not losing weight at the moment. I know how you feel though!! Good luck! I know you'll overcome this "plateau" soon! :flowerforyou: God bless!0

It completely gets me down when I think I am not losing, but now after all I learned from this site, I can't keep myself eating badly for too long.
I know (in my head) roughly the calories that I am consuming and if I get too much over I get disgusted with myself and start my next meal fresh.
I try to keep my body guessing, instead of most of my calories for dinner I will plan dinner out early and opt for low cal, then I will eat more in the morning Or even save 100 calories and I may eat that in the middle of the night (when the baby wakes up).
I know my weight is coming off slow and I don't really care too much about the number anymore, as long as I know I am living more healthy I know the weight will follow gradually.0 -
Give yourself a variety of exercises, otherwise your body plateaus and treats it as the norm.0

Carrie,
it looks to me (from your profile) that you dont have a huge amount to lose. Those last few lbs are the hardest. give yourself a little break and eat a little more or exercise a little less change up for a week then kick it into high gear. it wil happen and you will hit your goal.
Stay strong your doing great.0 -
Read that post on Expectations. Just stick it in the search engine. you've probably read it already, but I find I have to read it over and over just to remember what phase I'm in...0
