Wow. I am so glad I have so many friends who totally get what it's like to be FRUSTRATED about something you are working so hard to overcome. Thanks for all the words of encouragement on my post about the scale. Very much appreciated.
I emailed my genius friend Alissa, yeah, her blog is LN nutrition blog on my "favorite sites" column and of course she is brilliant and wonderful. She gave me some really sound advice and agreed that with all my effort, I should have expected to see the numbers drop by now.
She recommended me increasing my calories a bit and increasing it through healthy fats. I've always known that healthy fats are an important part of fat loss and a healthy metabolism but I hadn't thought that maybe I need to eat MORE healthy fats.
She is an expert in this field and wrote me a long email about how to continue on this journey and I'm feeling renewed and re-motivated. I can do this.
This really is a journey and I think sometimes I forget how difficult it is. I forget how much the little things matter. I'm going to follow her directions and continue with my workouts because I just can't give those up. I'm hooked. Nothing like dripping with sweat to make my day.
A daily journey and journal for 1 year documenting my baby steps, my leaps, my backtracking, my progress and the struggle to reclaim my health.
