I have thought about writing on here that last few days, but I am being honest when I say, that there is really nothing I have felt like writing about. I have been down and frankly unhappy. Mostly because I have been consistently working out and working out harder than I EVER have in my entire life, and I have not seen any results. It is very discouraging. I hear people saying things I should do, things I should not do. Such as, stop drinking pop, DUH! I know this, but that is sooooo hard for me. I like pop, I like the way it tastes and feels in my mouth. When I have had a bad day or if my kids have driven me extra crazy, I want to sit down after they go to bed and have a coke. It is like my coffee, or wine if you will. When others get stressed and have a glass of wine, or if they need energy and have a cup of coffee, that is what coke is to me. I don't drink coffee or wine, so please, let me just have my coke! I am trying to switch to diet, but it is harder than I thought it would be.
I also have a hard time eating healthier. I am nursing, so I am hungry A LOT! And so it is hard for me to think about cutting out junk food completely. I mean I have made changes, seriously I have, I don't eat NEAR as much as I used to, I am eating healthier than I was, not as healthy as I could, but I am doing better. I am drinking more water to. So I have made changes. So why have I not seen any results? It is utterly depressing to me, and it makes me want to cry. When I was getting ready for church on Sunday I put on my "fat" skirt and it was tight! TIGHT! It was loose on me after I had Madilynn! UGH! What on earth am I doing wrong! Anyway, I am just discouraged. And so I needed to vent about it. So here I am, venting to my computer, wishing it would encourage me to keep going, and tell me that I am going to lose 10 pounds soon. Wishing.........wishing..........wishing........
The first thing to know is that trying is the first step to success. Secondly, in every workout class or group I have been in they told us right off, don't expect to see results immediately. It may take a month. Muscle builds under fat before it starts burning the fat. Don't give up! You can do it!
ReplyDeleteOne of the most discouraging things for me, is that it has been a month. So I just feel totally unsuccessful!
