codechick's Journal, 09 Apr 12

Well, I had moved on to OWL and it seems that I'm one of those people that can't handle higher carb counts, so guess it's back to the drawing board. First I stalled (technically not a true stall, but stopped losing), then gained back 2-3 lbs. Then comes Easter...I avoided the obvious pasta, cornbread, desserts, etc. but know that some of what I ate was not 'clean', and I gave up on tracking food for the day. Weighed in last night (probably not a good idea) and had gained another few lbs. Had an Easter Atkins meltdown and cried for at least an hour. I have never tried this hard to lose weight before, and I've been doing this for 2 months now, no cheating, tracking everything I ate (with the exception of yesterday). I can't even describe how I feel...disappointed, lost and alone...my eyes are watering up as I type this. I can't give up, need to get back to basics and workout more often (which I honestly do not care for)

Sweety, every day is a fresh start. Every breathe an opportunity to begin again. No fear! No regrets! Just learning opportunities. Keep looking ahead to the goal. No looking back. I know you are beautiful right now. If you need to keep losing then you can do it if you stay focused on the goal no matter how many bumps and dips and detours you have to face along the way. Be encouraged!

awww (((codechick))). Like you I have never tried so hard to lose weight. That's why I had a melt down the other day. It will be ok. You're doing great!!!I've decieded to keep myself in the induction phase for a bit till I get the hang of this. I don't care to work out either unless it's an eliptical...I sure like those but I don't have one, so before it gets too hot here in Phoenix, I will walk in the morning with the baby. Wish we could get toghther and walk, would make working out better. :) Just know that I'm over here cheering you on!

Thanks for the support ladies! I don't really have anyone to talk to about this stuff...that's a whole other can of worms I won't get into. My BF tries to comfort me, but he doesn't really understand what I'm going thru. I'm still in my funky mood, can't seem to shake it. I now know what everyone is talking about when they say 'carb hangover'...I didn't even go too far off plan last weekend, and today I feel like crap. I guess the silver lining to this cloud is that I know I don't want to feel like this again, so if I have to bring my own meal to holiday get-togethers, then that's what I'll do. It's already hot here in Houston (well a little north of), but I've been walk/jogging with the dogs a few times a week...just need more of a workout routine. The 9 hour/day desk job doesn't help either :/ Hugs!
