Still stuck at 168 lbs.
Last week I got to Curves 3 times, this week I am aiming for the same. I realized I wasn’t pushing myself hard enough during my workouts and so I really stepped it up last week. I’m hoping that my increased efforts will produce some results.
I made a concerted effort to cut back on carbs and fats last week. Trying to increase the servings of fresh veggies and fruit I eat throughout the day this week. I do not snack in the evening other than a piece of fruit and a cup of tea, during the day I have yogurt in the morning with some trail mix or a piece of fruit, then during the rest of the day I may nibble on a granola bar or eat a handful of nuts. I’m just not getting why it’s so hard for me to lose weight.
I am getting a little discouraged, but I refuse to give up — yet!
My plan of getting up at 5:15 has not been working — I just can’t seem to drag my sorry behind out of bed at that time. So, I’m going to try really hard to get a walk in after supper at least twice this week. I realized that once upon a time I used to walk every day, no matter how cold it was, but for the last couple of years I’ve wimped out. Granted, I am much busier now in the evenings, but on those days when I can be at home I’m going to make a supreme effort to get my boots on and get some fresh air and exercise.
Here’s hoping for a 2 lb loss by next week!
Keep going, girl. It sure is hard to stick to a new routine. xxx
Thanks Cindy — I know I shouldn’t get discouraged — I only just started this thing — but I guess I was expecting miracles!
This is the tough time, Kath. I’m so glad you are not giving up. One thing that has helped me – the slower I take it off, the less chance of it coming back two fold!
I don’t mind if it comes off slow — I just want it to come off! LOL!
