Frustrations

As of my weigh-in this morning, I'm at exactly 332 pounds. For those playing along at home, that's a loss of .6 pounds. Yes, it's still a loss and that's a good thing, but it's a bit frustrating to be losing less than a pound this past week and to continue to be down from what had been my usual 2 pound per week average.

I do appreciate that I'm still losing weight, and I also ackowledge my body is still shrinking since the jeans I bought at the first of the year are into the same fit state as the ones they replaced (notably they're very loose, to the point I could likely smuggle a midget in the seat of them right now).

Part of this, I completely release, is due to my eating habits and I need to get back into the groove I'd had earlier. Part of this will be accomplished by picking up some of the Healthy Choice Cafe Steamer meals rather than going out to lunch five days a week. Five to six points for lunch compared to ten to twelve will go a long way to helping with getting back on the weight loss track.

The other thing I need to do is look at moving to going to the gym five days a week instead of just three (or two). Part of the hold up there has been the need to buy more work-out clothes. I have three pairs of sweat pants that I wear, and I really need to buy new shorts for the gym.

Yes, this post is a bit more of a whine than I've had in the past, but I figure I'm allowed now and again. I do recognize that I've come a long way at this point (68 pounds to date), but another part of me is impatient to reach my final goal and move into simply maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I just have to control that part of my mind, though, to ensure I don't derail myself in frustration.
