Guest guest Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 I'm actually up two pounds in the last four weeks making my weight loss for this challenge, two pounds. I'm a bit concerned, but not freaking Yet. If its the same story four weeks from now, then I'm freaking. I have been focusing on nutrition this last four weeks and really paying attention so the food I eat is stuff like brown rice and protein. And I'm measuring stuff. (yes I had free day crap, but monitor calories on freeday) My arms are smaller and my measurements are down in some areas, just not much. I started training for a half marathon and I have heard that throws your body off as afar as weight loss for a few weeks. In June when I finished my last challenge I was 196. I am 202 right now and the body fat/measurements are about the same. Its hard to get an accurate reading at 38%bf, but its all I have to go on. I'm going to take it as a sign I'm building muscle and keep working on that. Yes I am discouraged and right now I figure I have two choices. 1. give up, and we see where that has got me. 2. work hard and see what happens in the next four weeks. I'm still a 12-14-16 and people have started asking me " what I've done " (i feel like nothing) But I have lost 10 pounds this year and 42 in the last 2.5 years, giving up smoking, and i'm rambling. but It just sucks when you see these 40-50 pound weight losses in a few months and my body won't do that. -- Sheila There are only two options regarding commitment. You're either in or out. There's no such thing as a life in-between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
