i have to share a funny little story to start this blog entry off....Today at the gym there was a guy lifting weights he had ear phones on and was totally dancing away to the music....he lifted a heavy set and grunted his way through it and when he was done he jumped up (eyes closed) and hooped and hollered until he opened his eyes and saw us standing there... smiled and said.. well yeah hell yeah ladies lol to funny....
So I'm back to feeling blue... I'm getting like zero results so obviously everyone jumps to the conclusion that i must be cheating on my meal plan... nope I'm not... ok then obviously I'm not working out as much as i say i am right? well yes this week i didn't work out as much because i was sick but I'm putting my all into it.
I'm feeling left out, abandoned, and given up on.
in talking to my very in shape father today he feels that my meal plan is actually causing me to gain because I'm not eating enough. he just read an article that states anything under 1500 calories for the day is more than likely doing damage because your body is going into save mode... i agree but i have been accused of not taking professional advice so i am still doing what I'm told to do...
everyone around me dropping weight and body fat % like it's going out of style. I'm still getting very discouraged. I really just want to work out alone and not be in competition with anyone because i feel like no matter what i never measure up to the ones i compete against....
i am feeling like a failure today :(
My clothing are not fitting better, I've stayed at the same weight for the past like 4 weeks, and my body fat % has not gone down... ;(
my legs and arms are like rocks though...
I'm not sure I'm going to do the next biggest loser.. honestly i feel like it's pushing me to do something drastic because I'm not getting the results like i should....:(

I can understand your frustration. There is definitely something going on with your body. Have you ever thought of having an endocrinologist check you out? I know I could benefit from it... my hormones are completely out of whack. It's obvious in my weight loss... or lack thereof. I lose weight in the first two weeks of my cycle, but not in the second two... no matter what I do. I actually gain a couple, which I'm sure is water because it comes off when I'm done. It's crazy.
ReplyDeleteAnd you know... slow is hard, but generally slower results actually stick. A lot of times big swings don't. I like to tell myself this all the time. ;) It's a slight encouragement. lol! Maybe if you don't do the next biggest loser you could try signing up at jillianmichaels.com. She figures your calories on your activity too because that brings your base caloric needs up a bit. So for me, it's 1400 a day if I want to lose 2lbs a week. I eat 1600 pretty much every day. My results are slowish, but they're pretty steady. It would help if I ate all the foods she says to, but I have a whole family to feed and I'm not making everyone something separate so I made some compromises.
It's hard. It's ridiculously hard. I hope you can figure out what's causing your body to hang on to the weight.
