Well today was my official WI day and although the news is disappointing I will NOT GIVE UP!! The good news is I did not gain but I maintained. This is my second week to maintain and I have stayed OP for both weeks so I am thinking that either I am in a serious plateau or I am consuming to many carbs. I know that this is normal and I can't lose every single week but it's still kind of disappointing!
But I do have an NSV to share :) The "OLD" me would have clearly given up and said the "hell with this" BUT the "NEW" me is NOT GIVING UP :) This is a great NSV breakthrough for me so I am very happy and proud of myself for this. I am in this for the long haul and I WILL get to goal but I do know that it's not going to come off overnight because I didn't get this heavy overnight.
On the upside my clothes do feel looser on so that is a plus! And my boyfriend gave me the best compliment ever and said that I looked thinner in the face and stomach so that made me SUPER happy to hear it coming from him :) So all in all even though I maintained again for the second week in a row I am UNUSUALLY HAPPY :) This just tells me that I am doing this right this time around and that is an accomplishment in itself :)
I hope everyone is having a GREAT weekend and let's all have a LOSER WEEK :)
Goals for this week:
* To break the 350 mark ...I know it will happen this week :)
* To watch my carb intake and eat higher protein choices :)
* To watch my salt intake , the less salt the better :)

Hey!! Great attitude!
Can you please let me know what OP and NSV mean? I always see people writing it and Im so lost lol
Keep up the great work!!
that is a great compliment to receive! and congrats on your maintain and your NSV. definitely never give up because the scale will go down. I get stuck a lot or see a lot of gains, but the scale will eventually go down so just keep up your healthy habits and youll be glad you never gave up.
Maintaining is a victory in itself. But I understand the desire to lose. I woudl say if you maintain this week as well, you may need to switch something up - more activity, less calories, more water, etc... Your body might just need a bigger push. So proud of you for not giving up!!! You go girl!
Hi...just found your blog and will definitely be following your progress. You've come so far!
Hello. I am a university professor who is conducting research on WEIGHT LOSS BLOGGERS AND THE ROLE BLOGGING HAS PLAYED IN THE BLOGGER’S WEIGHT LOSS.
As you may be aware, a lot of research has been done over the years on weight loss but very little has been done on blogging and weight loss. I hope you will help me remedy this.
I have chosen you as a potential research participant because you have a weight loss blog, have a weight loss goal of 100 pounds or more, and have been blogging for at least three months.
If you choose to participate in this study, you will be asked to complete a survey that I will email you. Your answers will be completely confidential and I will use a pseudonym of your choice in the final study.
I have an information sheet about the study I would be happy to share with you. Please email me at aldridga@nsuok.edu if you would like to take a look at it.
Thank you for your time and best of luck to you on your weight loss journey.
Sincerely,
Amy Aldridge Sanford, PhD
