3 more lbs!

Saturday, October 29, 2011

Seems like the weight is coming off a LOT slower now, but that's ok. I lost 3 lbs this week and I'm super happy! I am still constantly fighting with my mind about not needing as much food as I *think* I want. I'm definitely not starving myself either, though. I'm just more mindful about having a healthy snack and when to stop eating. I'm also only 1 week and 3 runs away from finishing the couch 2 5K program.

So... woohoo on finally accepting that slow and steady wins the race. I am not going to lose 100 lbs tomorrow and I've finally accepted that. emoticon

    Great attitude! And congrats on the couch to 5k... I am a bit too heavy to finish it but I am on week 4 and really love it, it's a great workout.

Slow and steady wins the long-term race, for sure! Congrats, and emoticon

    I would totally be excited about a 3 week loss. I am struggling just to lose any weight. I am having such a hard time staying on track with my calories. I am either way under my goals or way above them. Good Job! emoticon

    It's a hard thing to get past, and to accept. You are doing such a magnificent job taking your time, doing it the 'right' way! Go you!

    We didn't gain the weight in a day and it won't come off in a day!! It's hard to be patient when you're dying to see the results isn't it?? I feel the same..... I've added you as a friend as we have a similar goal date for when we want to have lost our weight and hope you add me back emoticon

    emoticon on your weight loss this week!

I know that it can seem frustrating that the weight doesn't go away quite as quick as we would like, but you are doing great for not giving up. Stick with it and you will see results!!
