I have been actively trying to lose weight my whole life. I went from 300 to 220, and back up to 250 (5’2 F) after letting myself slip during an extremely stressful negative time period. In October, I finally decided I had enough and needed to take back my life.
I have counted calories (1400-1700), added 30 mins of cardio ontop of my usual strength training. Despite my weight gain, I have remained in the gym. However, now I’m much more dedicated with ensuring I am doing 1 hour of strength training and 30 mins of cardio.
I weighed myself yesterday and have only lost 5lbs putting me at 245. I’ve gotten multiple compliments by regulars in the gym for noticing I’ve became stronger so I keep telling myself it may be muscle and recomp PLUS I’m on my period, but it feels like constant excuses. I’m getting so frustrated this go around because it seems as though my body isn’t losing weight as fast as it was 5-7 years ago.
Has anyone noticed that the pounds are coming off slower for the second go around for weight loss?
