Frustration

I pulled my regularly scheduled blog post this morning about 5 minutes after it posted because– I’m frustrated.

It’s no secret to my friends or family that I’ve been Low Carbin’ it to lose weight. And I love low carb for so many reasons its literally a whole new post.

But this week I’m frustrated.

I’ve stayed within my 20g of Carbs for Atkin’s Induction, under my “recommended” calorie limit for sparkpeople, under my “personal” calorie limit for myself, I’m drinking a TON of water– Around 16 cups a day ish. And yet I grain a pound? How does that even make sense!?

I don’t want you all to take this post as me giving up–because that’s certainly NOT what this is. I’m just a little baffled how 9 months ago, I was eating the same foods, doing the same routines and drinking the same water yet each week I was losing at least a little bit of weight.. .1 0r 5 pounds doesn’t matter. Something was coming off. And even if it wasn’t a big loss in a number, I felt overall slimmer. I felt like I was losing weight!

Mentally I feel focused. I feel like I know what I want to do, and I know how to do it– And I AM doing it.

This morning instead of my normal protein shake, I opted for some eggs and breakfast sausage to see if a more Paleo stlye of eating could help spark some weight loss. I’m hoping this sparks something because it is SUPER frustrating to have all of your focus on something to only see negative effects!

Sorry for the rant kids but I just went with my gut and some strong advice from Amy (Check her out shes under my sponsors section!) to blog my feelings out and see what happens.
