Lots going on in this head

Well I am doing Fine.. And if any of you know what FINE really means then you know that it is not true. LOL I have been working pretty hard on losing but have slowed. This is where my weighloss usually plateus and I give up... I have vowed to myself that is not what is going to happen for me.. I am changing my plans with my personal trainer because of the pain from my Fybromyalgia... I went to one workout and was in pain for a full week plus some.. It made my symptoms flair up.. I also gained .4 lbs back.. Not biggy I am thinking it is from my time of the month. I had a hystorectomy 3 years ago but have one ovary left so still get the symptoms.. Anyways... I still would not say I am not in Bandster Hell.I am really doing my best to stay at under 1200 calories some days it may be a bit more but not many. I definatly do not have restriction but can feel some foods going through the band. I also have been trying to focus on slowing down my eating. That is the hardest part for me.. I am going to start using my phone for a timer... I put in a request for another fill so hope to do that in just over a week.. I really want to get to that sweet spot.

 

Well goodnight all... PS I love reading all the blogs on here. It helps me with inspiration..

I can relate to this, My excersise at the gym caused me to lose less this past month, and I gained in inches from building muscle mass, but I think that muscle will increase the fat burning later on. I had osteoarthritis, and some workouts leave me in discomfort, but I too think that will get better with time, and with more weight dropped. A plateau is so DEPRESSING, and it seems like life throws all it can at me with Family etc, during those times. I lose it, find it, lose it, find it. But it better get gone, cause I AM NOT GIVING IN this time darnit! Hang in there with us!
