Depressions a b***h

Can I start by saying I'm going to zumba soon so I'm gonna sweat instead of crying so here goes.

I just have to hide my scale I keep upsetting myself! I'm not gaining but I'm not loosing like I thought I should be. I've lost 48lbs in almost 10 weeks I know it's enough but also I stand a lot at work and when I stand I still feel like I'm carrying that extra 48lbs still. I'm 211lbs my first goal is to be under 200 hopefully by the end of january.

My depression is I still feel 259lbs but all my body aches and is sore from all my amazing workouts I do.

You know what I mean, right?

UGGGHHHH!

    Measure all of your body parts and put the scale away. Use your measurements and smaller clothing to gauge your progress.

Our stats are very close and I know how you feel. I also think I'll feel a lot better once I get below 200 but I'm pretty sure I'll just lower the bar again and decide <180 is the magic number. I also set a goal for end of January to get below 200. We can do this.

My weight hasn't moved for a week and a half and I'm super impatient. Hang in there, you're not alone. I think I was programmed to be impatient.

I just put the scale away. I'm too scared to measure myself. My cloths haven't changed on my body because they were extra big on purpose before and I haven't wore jeans in 3 years I've been wearing leggings so I can't see much

No worries, Everyone loses at different speeds.

I also am a slow loser. Down 54lbs since my surgery September 8th, But a lot of the friends I have on Instagram who had surgery at the same time are down 60-70lbs. Just keep swimming!

Also that amount of weight lost in 10 weeks is pretty awesome!

I mean without surgery have you ever had results like that?..I know I havent, That's why were here.

i have the same goal you have. . . . . to be under 200 by the end of January. i think 48 lbs lost is great !!!

don't be so hard on yourself !!!
