I'm due for my cycle. I've been breaking out insanely, I've been having intense cravings, and I've gained 4 lbs over night, and I have turned into mega bitch. Awesome. My weight has remained relatively unchanged for the last month, because I was 150.0 lbs at the beginning of September and 154 before my period, and I'm 150 lbs and 154 for the beginning of my period. Sigh. (I feel sort of better, though, having some sort of reference point, even if I haven't changed much.) I've been doing research, and according to PeerTrainer, if you have already been eating healthy and exercising but want to lose the last 10 lbs., it'll be even more difficult than if you were significantly overweight. Boo! One of the users says that it took up to 3 months for him to start losing weight since he started dieting stricter. Another boo! I guess patience is a virtue, though. I did screw my metabolism over, and then on top of that my body just holds onto weight, so I suppose it'll just take a bit longer for me to lose weight. But still! Booooo! I'll just have to keep doing what I'm doing, and weight loss will come naturally.
I've been eating a lot healthier, too, even from since I was fasting. A 1400 allotted calorie total a day makes a lot of room for me to spread my wings and fill my plate with healthy options, plus a couple of not-so-healthy choices, like that chocolate bar I ate yesterday. Anyway...I got to go, but I'll update later!
Life is good, don't throw it away. Love you all.
I just love your opitimism & determination! When other people would get discouraged and give up, you just keep going and don't stop! Even when you mess up, you're not really hard on yourself, you see it as a mistake, and instead of getting really upset about you it, you try a bit harder the next day. When determination & a good attitude like that, you're definitely going to suuceed! =)
