Good Monday morning to my FS family. Frustration settles in easily with me. My scale isn't moving. I know the clothes feel better, people see a change, but in my mind the goal that I am working towards is getting no closer. It is just truly frustrating. But I keep going. Keep working. Keep moving. I know if I stop it cannot get better. At least if I keep it up, I will be healthy, and active. Ultimately that is my main goal, but a weight goal would be nice to achieve as well. I have hit PF hard for the past three months. I go 4 times a week. I am there for an hour and a half every morning. During the day I try to walk as much at work as possible. I print stuff to the furthest printer from me. I grab my water from the furthest water cooler from me. The fridge I use is on the other side of the building. Yet, no matter how much I sweat, how much I work, I can't shed the weight I am trying to get rid of. I've lost about 13 pounds since January. I've lost only 2 in the last 4 weeks. No matter what I do I can't get below this 265-267 mark. The harder I work, the harder it stays. I push, it pulls. So, last night, my wife and I were talking, she suggested to just do cardio for the next two weeks. Leave the weights out of the equation to see what happens. Maybe I am just trying to lift too much. I don't think I am tho. I am at a level that is comfortable for me to lift. Nothing too heavy. I was increasing my weights up til two weeks ago, when I decided just to leave it there and concentrate on losing, not lifting. So, I am giving this a try. The next thing I think I may need to do is tweak the eating. I'm not sure how to do that tho. I am not a low carber by any means. I give mad props to all you low carb folks out there. I can't do it. I've cut back on my carbs, but to cut them out completely, I can't. I've tried it before. Not a fan. But you that can do it, I applaud you. It's a tough lifestyle. Keep it up. Well, that's enough out of me. I've vented enough. Hope you all had a great weekend. And keep up the awesomeness. You are all doing great.
