Disappointing Weigh In Today

Longtobeslim

Good Morning,

I am a bit discouraged today. I only lost .6 at my weigh in today. I do my "Official" WI on Wednesday mornings, although I weigh myself most mornings.

I do the elliptical 3 days a week and walk 3 times a week. Monday I did a Zumba class for the first time. But all week I just felt heavier. Do you know what I mean?

I rarely eat any of the exercise calories I burn. I am thinking maybe I am not eating enough. I get the whole "if you don't eat enough, you will go into starvation mode thing." But how quickly can a person put themselves in starvation mode? My husband doesn't believe in eating back our exercise calories so that is the main reason I haven't been doing it. He is of the mindset that if you eat less you will lose more and I know that isn't always the case.

I have my goals set to lose 2 pounds a week (I know that is a lot but I have about 110 pounds I want to lose. So MFP has me eating 1,200 calories a week.

Thoughts...

Thanks,

Erin
