I have been lo-carbing since March 15. So, figure 2 months. In those 2 months I have lost 25lbs. I walk 3x a week and do 20 sit-ups a day. I am getting discouraged. Nothing else is coming off. It's been 3 weeks since I last weighed in so I'm not sure if I lost more or not. I am not noticing it in my clothes though anymore. My sons graduation is this Saturday. I have gone from a size 26 down to anywhere from a 22 to a 20 depending on the clothes. I went shopping last night to buy something to wear. It was either way to big, or way to small. NOTHING was in between. This of course has me discouraged, frustrated angry but most of all sad. They don't make a size 21!!! I realize I should be happy about what I've lost so far, but now I am dreaming at night of pigging out at Wendys, and Burger King. People keep shouting at me not to do it but I tell them I don't care, it's not working so I can eat whatever. Luckily it's not spilling over into my waking world. Can anyone tell me if they had gone thru a spell where they didn't lose anything?
I am very good at watching what I am eating. If anything, I hardly even eat my wraps anymore (3 grams carb) I just eat the meat, cheese and lettuce on its own. I can honestly say I know it's not sneaking extra carbs in. I don't do any prepackaged bars or what have you. I just need someone to tell me to keep going. It's only been 2 months and maybe by August, it will be better yet. I talked to a lady who has been lo-carbing since Jan. She has lost 80lbs so far. She looks fabulous. I guess I'm just greedy and jealous. Someone please HELP!!
Thanks!
