So I have been back on Weight Watchers for two weeks and I have been exercising religiously after work. I am quite discouraged because I am finally on track, not cheating at all, logging in all my points and calories on Myfitnesspal and the WW website, but not losing. Every few days I will lose a p0und but then I gain it right back the very next day. Right now I am averaging between 1100 and 1200 calories a day, and staying within my allotted WW points. I am power walking 5 days a week plus taking green tea to try and help speed up my metabolism. So what gives?
I weigh the exact same as I started out at two weeks ago. And yes, I weigh myself without clothes first thing in the morning before I've had anything to eat. No, I do not eat salt and I buy low sodium veggies and chicken broth. No, I am not losing inches either, because my jeans still feel just as tight. I am also not gaining muscle, because I am not working out with weights.
I feel like since I hit 40, I am going to be stuck and this dreaded weight (168 pounds) forever. I don't want to give up, though. I miss being able to walk up a flight of stairs without getting short of breath. I miss looking thin and feeling really good about myself. I miss the compliments from friends and even random strangers telling me how pretty I am. I miss the old me. Am I ever gonna get back to my old self again?
