I'm Stuck!!!

Hrumph!!!

It's always when you are striving for a goal, that is when the scale stops. Sick, stack, stuck, stuck, stuck!

I did get down to 227.8 and really hoped it would get a little lower than that. Instead it went back up a little and has been wavering between 228.2 and 228.6.

Okay, adding a side note here but I just noticed that I had written 277 and 278! I changed it to the correct weights but OMG I still think of myself as just that heavy still! I am so used to 277 or 278 and so NOT used to being 227 or 228! I don't think it's a freudian, but it certainly says a lot about where my head is at in all of this.

Any ways. I'm eating the right things and avoiding the wrong things, and yet the scale is stuck. :( This saddens me a bit because I really want to be at 226 by the end of the week and now it looks impossible. I do hope that by the end of NEXT week I will have shaken the scale loose and it will move again.

It's funny to me because I don't normally fret aboutthings like this, but when you're on the cusp of hitting a HUGE milestone that not too many people can claim, such as getting rid of 100 pounds off their body, having it stare at you for over a week and a half is frustrating, and such a tease!

I know I will get there, I just wish it was here now.

I am also surprised at where I am in all of this. I seriously was not this obsessive about my weight until I started getting closer to this milestone. I want to try and shake the desire to weigh myself 2, 3, 5, times a day or more. I don't worry about it unless the scale doesn't move in the morning. Okay 'worry' isn't the right word. It's more like frustration and annoyance.

My calories range from 300-800 depending on how busy the day was. I do need to get better at my protein though. I get in between 30 and 90 grams of protein in, again depending on the day.

Why does it depens on my day? Well with 7 kids all day long, (we homeschool) one can forget to eat very easily. I do try very hard to make sure I get my protein in in the morning to help start the day off right.

So that was my whine for the week. Fingers are still crossed that I will hopefully see 226 on the scale by Saturday, but my hopes are not that high for the possibility right now.
