Just Tired

I'm just tired. I feel every bit of my age today. Yesterday was a very busy day at work which is good, and I worked out hard. This morning I kind of went through the motions at the gym and I'm kind of going through the motions at work as well.

 

I'm tired of working hard and not getting anwhere. I try to stay upbeat, but today its not going to happen.

 

I eat less than 1200 calories a day, every day. I work out every day at least once (elliptical, weights, water aerobics or a combination), every day. Today I put on a size 22 skirt that fit before the surgery, and it fits now.

 

Nice. I'm just fed up with this. I must be one of those people that don't lose weight no matter what. Maybe 50 is too old to do this.

 

I have a fill set for Monday, but seriously, what good will that do? I don't eat any carbs and my calories aren't out of whack for losing at least 2 lbs a week.

 

I'll let the doctor decide Monday I guess. Until then I think I'm gonna lay off the working out and get some rest.

 

;)

When you feel tired, maybe you should eat some carbs! They will give you the energy you need. Also when we get tired, we get depressed? I do, then I feel helpless. I know that band is STILL there. Maybe your body is use to the diet and exercise program you are on so that is is COMFORTABLE there. Shake it up a bit, try to eat not counting calories, I DO! I only count the carbohydrate grams in food and I don't go over 50 per day! I eat all the bacon, eggs, butter, cheese, meat, and berries I want! And I eat peanuts and almonds too! I have lost 91 lbs in a year! Get the Adkins Diet online, follow it to the letter, and you will lose with the band. I also eat salads with vinegar and oil dressing, boiled eggs and lots of meat for toppings, pepperoni for a twist! Canned chicken with pickles and mayonaise, salt and pepper is so delicious too! There are lot of foods you CAN have and they make me feel good. Also, try the website www.400caloriesorless.com

If you have been logging your calories, take it to your appointment and see if the nurse/doc have any suggestions. Working out should give you energy so maybe you are missing something nutritionally. Good luck and I hope your sadness passes quickly!
