Weight Loss Journal: 4/15/2011

Last week = 270.0
This week = 269.4
Weight loss = 0.6 lbs

I am still plateaued around 270 lbs. I think this is my comfortable weight for now. I am able to easily sustain this weight and still eat the foods I like. I do need to work out more often and when I increase my work outs my weight will go down again. But, right now I am comfortable where I am. I would rather be chubby and happy then to be skinny and miserable ;p

I will continue to weigh myself every Friday, but I won't post in this journal again unless something changes.

Weight Loss Journal: 4/08/2011

Last week = 270.0 lbs
This week = 270.0 lbs
Weight loss = 0 lbs

So, it looks like I have plateaued. At least I didn't gain any weight, but I am disappointed that I am not loosing more. I just have to keep doing what I'm doing and wait for the plateau to be over. Being patient during weight loss is very difficult though and for anyone else that is going through a similar problem, you just need to stay focused and keep on your diet and exercise. It may be hard, but your body will eventually catch up and the weight will drop again.

Weight Loss Journal: 4/01/2011

Last week = 265.0 lbs
This week = 270.0 lbs
Weight loss = +5 lbs

The brick wall that is 265 has won again. Damn you 265, I will get below your weight one day!

265 lbs is a weight that I have gotten down to a few times, but there was always something that happened that kept me from breaking through to a lower weight and then I would gain weight again.

It is understandable though, I have been under some stress this week from being fired from my job and having to figure out what I want to do now. I applied to CU Denver for economics and it feels good to be able to do what I really want now without being held back by my job. I also drank alcohol for four of the days this week, once my time got freed up I had a lot of parting to do and alcohol is not exactly conducive to weight loss. ;p

Although the five pound gain is disappointing, it is understandable and I won't let it get me down in the slightest. I will break through the 265 barrier, no matter how long it takes. I am still feeling great and my weight loss was noticed by some of the girls at the bar last night. It always feels great when someone else notices and I gotta say the compliments felt really good.
