I Expect to much out of myself..
It’s been exactly 7 days since i started dieting and well i lost only 2.5 lbs , i admit maybe i have not been doing everything like text book, but i am doing it consistent and everyday planning and cooking healthy, bringing my lunch and this weeks goal is to add more water to my goals, i know i shouldn’t expect weight to fall off , but i truly feel as if i had lost more then it shows on the scale, i wanted more to show on the scale, but i have to take what i got and be happy with that, i sometimes get impatient with myself i suppose that”s why i fall off the band wagon, i make excuses for myself of why i can have something to snack on and i will be good tommorow and start bargaining with myself then i am making deals with God… how ridiculous am i… trying to make a deal with the lord like he was monty Hall and had a great prize be hind door #1 for me,.. i usually would get down on myself and start all the stupid excuses, but this time i am ok.. i am not stressed about it and still continued on with my day, the same as i have the past week plan and set another goal to incorporate, this week is adding water, last week was being consistent and writing in my journal.. and , its better that i am doing something then nothing at all.. so this week i will not expect to much out of myself but to keep up with the 2 goals i have set for myself this week,.and have a great week

ONLY two.5 pounds?!?!?!?! Two.5 pounds is great Maddy
Just think, if you lose 2.5 a week, that is 10 a month—sounds pretty awesome! Keep up your great work !!!
Maddy, did you put this weight on overnight? If not, why, my friend, do you expect to take it off overnight? Be patient with yourself my friend. You can’t expect perfection in a week. If you are anything like me, it takes you a bit to get your body and your mind and your planning all in order so you can get the weight off. Pick one thing to focus on all week…if it’s journaling, then make sure that you journal all your food and activity for a week, when you have done that for a week, pick something else. Patience, my friend, you’ll get there! Just don’t expect it to happen tomorrow.
Hi there!
I think 2.5 lbs is pretty good in just one week!
You shouldn`t be so hard on yourself..
I understand your frustration, it`s such hard work (mentally and physically) and yet you feel like it should have been more, but I think you are doing GREAT:D REALLY!
