I'm so ready to give up...
WW that is.
It's so hard making changes to your lifestyle. It's too hard to try and eat healthy when the rest of your family can eat what they want. It's too hard to get up at 5:00a.m. and go to the gym for a hour before work.
I know, I know....suck it up and drive on. I plan on doing that, but I just wanted to whine.
I've only been doing WW for 13 weeks and I've lost a total of 13.6 pounds, but last night was weigh in and I'm back up .8. I know it's a measly .8 and I have to remember that it has taken me 17 years to put on this extra 50 pounds and it's not going to come off over night or in just a few weeks. I need to shoot for an average of 1 pound per week and at the end of the year I will have lost 52 pounds.
It's just soooooo hard.

KEEP DOING IT! You can poop out .08!!! Just drink a ton of water!!!! 13 pounds is A LOT OF WEIGHT!!!!!
Take like a pound of butter--what is that, like four sticks? And times that by 13 ... look at how much butter that is. Or imagine what 52 Quarter Pounders would look like and that's how much you've lost! (OK, don't think about 52 Quarter Pounders cuz that would make ANYONE hungry, but you get the drift!
Smile!

I saw you that you had added me to the blogs you follow (I'm flattered...thanks), so I came to visit! I came across this point and had to respond. I do hope that you aren't still feeling this way. I have been there. I have so been there. Let me tell you a little something. I have been doing WW for years. Pretty religiously though since the beginning of the year. Guess what, up until 3 week ago, I had only lost about 9 pounds. I kept playing with the same 5 lbs over and over again. Frustrating beyond words. In the past, I would have just given up. What's the point, right? I have changed my mind set. I figure I will have bad days but if I have more good days than bad days, then it will eventually happen. Now, with the help of some new meds I am finally starting to see some results. Be thrilled with a pound a week, be thrilled with 1/2 a pound. It all adds up! I know it's hard. Slow and steady wins the race...and any time you want some encouragement, need to whine, need to vent...come on over. :)
