A whole lot of nowhere fast. after hitting that wall, hitting it hard and working my butt off...my butt did not come off. I plateaued and got discouraged. and am still there. Despite going paleo for a month (i got down to 222ish. and the excess water came off) J and I decided to keep going, tracking calories, eating whole foods, and I have yet to get below 221.5. I eat a minimum of 1300 calories and a maximum of 1500 despite MyFitnessPal saying ive got a good 1780 to lose a lb a week. I ammore active, bike rides, walks, runs weekly, lugging 2 children out and about, so on and so forth. Im not in the gym 5x a week anymore busting my tail. That was much easier when I didnt have classes and work. But still, I am active, eating right.
Here are some current pictures. Im really bloated today, for a reason unbeknownst to me. I weighed in this am at 226 which means im retaining water somethign FIERCE. so I have been nursing some lemon water all day, and eating raw (with some tuna in my salad).
I am still in a 16-18 pants. and I am feeling discouraged. But I figure, even if im NOT losing weight, i cant put SHIT in my body, because my body, at any weight, deserves the right fuel. does this mean im excited? no. im pissed. Im trying really hard, but its not melting off like it should. Ive fgot 7.5 months until our hawaii wedding, a date I had hoped to be wearing a bikini made for a size 8. but no. not happening.
I shall continue with this, doing what i can, easting the right foods, tracking calories.
Ill update when I have something worth saying on the matter.
