    My frustration is local joints with no calorie counts. I don't trust myself to estimate because I barely eat out so I don't have much of a "library" in my head to compare it to (how do I know if the portions are similar or not, you know?). But when I go out, I don't want to limit myself to chains that have calorie counts, so I have to deal with the frustration of having no clue how many calories something is, just hoping that it's within my range. Urgh!

    My biggest frustration is trying to excercise with big belly and knowing that if I keep on trying to exercise n eat right. It may go away but whats worse... I have this sag extra skins from being preg. Now I cant figure out how to get rid of sag skin without bothering me or carry all that sag weight on my lap. Its so frustrating when it gets hot n sweating, it hurts when it rubs. Ugh! Will like to hear someone who went through n what their optional to deal w this?

    My biggest frustration is staying at or slightly above or below my current weight for a month and a half and losing NOTHING despite staying within 50 or so calories of my daily goal. And working out. And not eating what the rest of the family is eating. And still not losing. I know it will come eventually, but I didn't realize "eventually" would mean multiple weeks at the same spot.

    Having to accept that I have medical conditions that affect how I have to lose weight. Now that I'm addressing that again and accepting that I need more regular follow ups I'm losing again though

    I'm dropping in clothes sizes so fast I can't afford new clothes and thrift shops don't have my size because it is still larger than usual... Everything just hangs on me either from a belt or my shoulders and it looks awful. And I still have 40 kg (88 lbs) to go :(

    Unrealistic frustration: that I can't eat all the pasta-bread-cheese my heart desires without gaining weight!

    Real frustration: I self sabotage myself on occasion (binging, skipping workouts, my logging truthfully).

    My big frustration is that I put on weight so easily and have such an appetite since starting on mental health meds as a teenager

    My biggest frustration is that my lupus is still attacking my heart, and it hurts almost every day. My biggest relief is that my heart no longer has to overcome my weight on top of that.
