My 3-month anniversary is July 27th - so far, I've lost 30 pounds. I am okay with how much I've lost, but I have been feeling a bit impatient with it not coming off as quickly as I'd like. I've recently stepped up my exercise to 4 days a week instead of the 2 days I was doing. I'm hoping I will see better results next time I step on the scale (I check it every Friday).
I can relate to SHSUSioux about the mental challenges when you have a plate of food in front of you ~ especially if it is something that's really tasty. I try to tell myself that the 20th bite isn't going to taste any better than the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd bite, and I've already enjoyed those bites ~ so why have more? Reading tips from everyone else has helped too.
