Feeling defeated and a failure
Hi,
I think you have to look at the big picture. You've lost 58 pounds in 17 weeks. That's more than 3 pounds per week. That is a respectable rate of weight loss. You are doing great and you don't realize it. If you were able to keep losing at this rate, you'd lose 150 pounds in a year. 75 pounds in 6 months. That's not bad!
My weight loss has always been lose a little and stall. Last Monday I was up three pounds overnight - I just ignored it, and its back down a couple days later. I've had stalls that lasted 2 weeks and it is frustrating. Don't let the day to day get you down. If you stick to the plan, the weight will come off.
best wishes,
Carol
