Diet Drama

Just to let everyone know I need some moral support here. I know I'm not supposed to weigh myself except once a month (is that right?), but I couldn't restrain myself. I weighed myself exactly at one week and lost NOTHING! NOTHING folks.. not even an ounce!!!!! :(

I am so discouraged at this point. My thinking is, if I diet and weigh the same, I can eat how I was and weigh the same!
*sigh*

I know just how you feel!!! When I had Travis I gained between 40 and 50 pounds...you talk about discouraging!! Well he weighed 9 1/2 pounds when he was born and I decided to weigh before I left the hospital assured that I had to have lost at least 9 1/2 pounds. Would you beleive I hadn't lost even an ounce?!!!! How in the world did that happen?!!! I still haven't figured it out! Hang in there!!

first of all , Amanda. I don't think you should be fretting over your weight. I think you are a nice size. I have struggled with my weight for the past 10 years of my marriage and trust me it is no fun. I wish we didn't worry so much about our weight and try to enjoy life more. I am obessed with it and it makes my family so mad. I want to be 105 and I'm not so I think I'm FAT constantly!!! Try not to sweat it so much. You are a very pretty lady and I'm sure your hubby is fine with however you are. BE HAPPY!!! As for the wall... it is wall paper. I will try to take a very up close picture of it and post it. It does have a design in it. Love you

Isn't it frustrating?! I feel your pain. But I did read recently that you actually loose more weight if you very gradually taper off calories. If you go into diet mode all at once, your body goes into "starving" mode and hangs onto the fat stores. I guess the key is to stick with it...but boy, is it ever a slow process!!
