I'm doing fortnightly weigh-ins to see if that keeps me motivated.<br /><br />Once you're feeling up to it you can up your activity levels and you will see a difference. Remember it's not just the weight that matters, the inches and health benefits matter too.<br /><br />Don't be disheartened as the weight will come off. You aren't alone.<br /><br />{{{Hugs}}}Amanda @ My Healthy Frugal Homehttp://www.myhealthyfrugalhome.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3603855351481174294.post-14147491941645970142011-01-16T22:47:50.114+00:002011-01-16T22:47:50.114+00:00Thanks Jen. You know so far I have managed to stay...Thanks Jen. You know so far I have managed to stay rational and tell myself that once I've lost 16 pounds of actual fat I will start to register a loss. It's just so disheartening though and I don't know how long I can go on just telling myself this...before I lose heart completely. It's just so frustrating!<br /><br />I know what you mean about people who stay at a certain weight despite your best efforts and I sometimes wonder if that IS the weight that you're supposed to be. But at MY weight I am totally sure it's not the weight I'm supposed to be LOL. In your case though it might be :)<br /><br />Best of luck with it Jen - just keep sticking with it and we can both have a much healthier 2011!

I can't seem to get past those 4 and I really want to lose 10 more. It feels like no matter what I want, my body really wants to be the size it is right now. Last year at this time I was hopelessly depressed about who I was, where I was and what I looked like. This year I am trying really hard to have positive mental conversations and not get too mired into the number on the scale. Don't give up on yourself...every day counts, every good choice counts...you'll get where you want to be! Didn't mean to write a novel...{hugs!}Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06970697186745968645noreply@blogger.com
