today.. Ahh today. Friday, it should be a welcomed day of the week for those who do the M-F gig. Today, not so much and as always the one thing that drives my attitude for the most part is my weight. I can't seem to get my head around slow weight loss. I know it's healthier this way but MAN. I must have a mental block, I just feel my efforts should show more than what I've seen. Ok so I just started Jan 28th and my second weigh in is this Sunday. I lost 2lbs first week and I think if my scales isn't playing games with me- You know how they do that right? Well I think I'm down another pound. Yes yes this is good. But has anyone still felt like it's such an uphill climb that even little success doesn't seem to feel good. No I'm not mental, I swear. Maybe it's a mood. But sometimes I get so flippin down about my weight that it just seems like it's going to be inevitable that I'll stay huge. Today I woke up with a hilasious headache and I'm blue. I'm sure that's the whole negitive thing right now. I love the message boards. I love the fact that I can let it all go and not feel stupid. Ok ok, this post might be pushin it .LOL But it's a nice safe place to just vent.

Congrats to all on Alli- and to those who are doing the -day Challenge.

Thanks for reading, listening, just being here!

Hey Wendy,

I feel your pain.  I have been doing alli for about a 5 weeks and have only lost 7 pounds.  It's good but not great.  This week I dind't lose any but I know it's because I have had slip ups at least one almost every week.  I'm not getting down on myself though.  For some reason I'm being way more patient than I have ever been on any other diets,  In the past  If I didn't see results fast I just would give up, that's why I am still fat today.  This is a long journey and you have to live your life and have those slip ups sometimes, otherwise your entire life is run by your diet.  Try not to get discouraged and be patient and before you know it 10 pounds will be  gone, 20 soon after.  It's hard but your not alone.

Good luck!

Ahhh, Wendy.  I think we all feel that way sometimes.  At the beginning, if you are a slow loser, it seems as if you'll never reach your goal.  And you read about others who lose huge amounts of weight right off and all the way through.  But just keep plodding along.  Soon, people will notice the change in you and compliment you on it.  That's motivating.  And think, in a few more months, you could be 15 - 20 pounds lighter if you keep your pace up.  That's amazing.  And even if it's 10 pounds less, YOU will have done it.  Take if from another slow loser, it's possible.  And you're worth it.

I hope your headache gets better quickly.
