Hello LoseIt, you may remember a post of mine about losing sixty pounds. I've lost seventy now, but I have hit my first plateau. I've been fluctuating between 389/390 for about two weeks now, and even shot up to 396 on Saturday.
The lack of progress is mentally taxing. I've cut my caloric intake by another 200 calories to see if it will break the plateau, but it will be about a week before the results can be measured. I've been looking at myself in the mirror lately and just feeling, sad. I've made good progress, but I still feel disgusting. Weight loss of this magnitude is not done in a short period of time, but in years. For the next few years I am going to be miserable, and that is driving me insane.
I'm also beginning to realize the issues with my life are much more than my weight. Whether it be mental health, not having friends or family, lack of career or purpose in life. These are massive issues that do not have quick fixes. I don't mean to come off as bitchy or ungrateful, there are millions of people in much worse situations than I. The grind is just beginning to get to me, and my vision of the next few years is not a good one; but one of non-stop ups and downs while I attempt to fix the gaping holes in my life. I hope everyone is doing well, and thank you for reading.
