Well, I have been trying to have patience with myself.
November's goal was a modest 3 pounds to 168 and was below it until the end of the month, which had me losing .8 pounds, essentially no weight loss. I chalked it up to salt, beer, and turkey celebrations. Thought I'd bounce back - and a few days ago, I was down where I felt like it should be, but then it snapped back. I do know I tend to go up before I drop - but just not catching that drop. It goes up then back to where it was, no more.
OK, no panic, adjusted workouts and taking days off. Adjusted eating, to try to reduce sugar, bump up protein, etc. Trying to drink even more water, etc. Today, I felt I should've been in the 167's, and this is not that.
I know it is tricky. And in the 50's things change - so it may be slower - but really strikes me it is too slow, given what I am putting in. Granted I am down pant sizes, belly is down, strength and conditioning way up. Mixing it up too, not all one thing.
My patience is starting to wear thin. From a physical perspective I do rigorous workouts, from a fasting perspective, I go 16-18 hours, and from a CICO perspective, even the most conservative estimation of daily activity, site shows me well in the range to lose a pound a week.
So last time i complained I took a drop - guess I should complain every day! :) But seriously - I get it comes in fits and starts - but this plateau is insane and driving me insane.
Today I am over feeding to the tune of 1000+ more calories than normal, and I am going to start eating breakfast and giving IF a break, here and there. I may have to start carb cycling and do full 24 hour fasts to really keep the body guessing. Not sure. but, at the least, me pigging out today will soothe my soul and I will rethink my approach tomorrow.
Sorry to vent - and I know I share that it is a journey - but sometimes you get a f(l)at tire and it kind of sh*ts on your enthusiasm, slowing your journey. Ugh.
Back to it. Love the community and support. Would not be anywhere without all the knowledge and sharing I gain from being on FS.
Sincerely, Grumpy. :)
