Plateau

Jul 11, 2010

So in five weeks I have lost 41 lbs (since surgery) and 53 prior to surgery.  Now I have only lost a couple lbs in the last couple weeks and I am not liking the feeling.  I think it's my fear of all the times I started a diet and failed so everytime I get on the scale even when I was losing weight I was scared that the weightloss would stop.  So now that I have hit a plateau so early on I kinda started freaking out.  I am finding comfort in writing down what I eat so that I know I'm eating right.  People tell me things like muscle weighs more than fat, it's because I lost so much so fast my body needs to adjust and the weightloss will come in spurts.  I guess I'm programmed not to hear these things because there is still that voice telling me I'm failing.  I am trying to tell myself to believe in this process and I will be successful!
