I feel stuck. I’ve gone from 290 to 267 and back up to 271 which could simply be swelling and water retention in this heat and humidity, but I feel stuck. I’ve been eating really healthy for the most part, and even when I’ve eaten something not-so-healthy, like a scoop of fresh strawberry ice cream, I made sure it fit into my calorie count or pretty darn close. I have been exercising more than I have in 20 years, my clothes are looser, my face is smaller, and friends have started noticing, and commenting that I’m looking good, or healthy, or like I feel better. I can tell a difference just looking down at my stomach...but the scale won’t move. It’s discouraging and I am getting scared. What if this is my set-point? What if I can’t lose more? I’ve gotten to 265 a couple of times In the last two years only to creep right back up to 290. I’m SO CLOSE now. 267-271 is close, right? I mean, I’ve still lost about 20-22 lbs since June 1. That’s a healthy rate and a great start, right? So why do I feel so defeated? I don’t want to sabotage myself, but I’m discouraged. I thought for sure the scale would be at 265 now with how much exercise I’ve done and eating well. 😟 I hate this. (Cartoon from Pinterest.
