Healthy Weight Loss

Gemme · 08-09-2013, 09:36 PM

I'm maintaining. I keep sliding back and forth between the same 2-3 lbs and that's okay. I'd like it to slide on the downward side a little faster but the longer it takes, the longer it will stick.

I'm up two pounds today, but I'm not discouraged. I have been doing all of the right things, and my body is feeling healthier, and that is the most important thing of all.

Don't forget if you're building lean muscle mass then you could well remain the same weight or heavier.

That's very true. Plus there are natural horomonal fluctuations to consider too. I have crazy fluctuations the week of, the week before and the week after so my only 'true' reading falls in the remaining week.

I'm not unhappy with my progress. Not all all. I am eating much healthier again, feeling better, and actually thinking about what I'm putting into my body and what the results will be from it (sluggish, tired, energized, stuffed, full enough, etc) now. My body is responding appropriately according to what I eat, what exercise I'm getting and my general in/output of calories.

I just wish it were as easy to come by as it was when I was getting to the point I was at before. *grin*
