I woke up feeling energetic today, and logged into my Simple app to check what's in store for today. My plan was to hit the gym. But my AI insisted it had been 20 days since I logged my weight, and that was today's goal.
But I knew that I didn't want to see a number. I have taken to sliding the scale under the laundry basket because my goal can't be about the numbers on a scale. And yep, I was right. It shows I'm up 4 lbs.
I've done weight loss and gym rat stuff for many years. I know that I probably added muscle because I changed up machines and routines. But I have limited myself to aprox 1200 calories, I fast 16 hours day, I haven't had pizza, chips, cookies, or fast food in 6+ weeks. Every meal includes fiber and protein. My water intake is over 88oz per day. And I still can't lose. Its very frustrating.
I spent most of my day ... hibernating. Wallowing. Dejected. Tomorrow I start again, crank down on the calories, increase my gym time and try yet again.
Maybe tomorrow will be better.
