This is what I posted on the WW 200+ board last night! I have been at 227 lbs for the last 3 WI's and I don't see any difference this week either. Little frustrated! WI is this afternoon - I will post back later!
==============================
I have been weighing myself all week but it doesn't waver. My weight has been bang on each and every day not budging. So I started to think about it today. I'm going to take my measurements in the morning to see if that has changed. I know that my clothes feel looser, my rings are looser on my hands and that was even in the heat after eating popcorn so that's a good sign. My mom suggested maybe I am building muscle. My niece asked if my body fat has gone down on the scale but I don't know since I only do one full WI on that scale each week - the morning of WI. Also, I had a great NSV today. I was getting changed and couldn't find a top so I took one of DH's t-shirt and it fits! Now that is a great NSV for me - not for him so much! LOL!
I admit that I still want the number. I want my 90 lb milestone, I want to meet my challenges, I want my 100 lb, Onederland. I want it all! And its not happening and I'm getting frustrated. But I also know this about me - if I keep getting frustrated, I'm going to start sabotaging myself or throw in the towel. And that's not how I'm living this now.
So, after reflecting, I know that right here right now, I am happy with the way I look and feel. I can run and buy clothes that I think look good and I have lost 115 lbs since I had my son last February and just about 90 lbs since I joined WW. I think I'm okay if I stick around here for a while. So no matter what happens tomorrow on the scale, I'm going to be okay!
If I keep feeling the pull of my challenges and goals and think they will actually deter me from meeting my ultimate goal of good health and permanent weight-loss, I will clear my signature of all WL challenges and be done with it for a while until my body starts moving again. And in the meantime, I'm going to celebrate where I am! It's been over 15 years since I was here. I can enjoy it for a while! :)
