Struggling to stick to it
I woke up this morning after three days of really sticking to my plan, and my weight was UP! Argh! I do feel bloated so I know it's probably just water weight but it was so depressing. I also have it so bad for Fantasy Man. Soooo bad. It is kind of hard on my self-esteem. Now if the scale had cooperated, it wouldn't be so bad, but with my weight up and no prospects with F man I just feel fat and rejected. I could really use a Diet Pepsi right about now. In fact, I went down to the convenience store planning to get one already, but they were temporarily closed! LOL! Will I have the strength to not go down again? The dollar bill is still in my pocket...
Does anyone know good ways to raise one's self-esteem? I know I shouldn't base how I feel about myself on either the scale or whether some guy returns my interest. I'm really not sure where else to turn though...

self -esteem
Thanks for commenting to my blog. We all seem to have that certain someone who just thinks they are so hot and better than everyone else.
PLEASE don't get discouraged? If you have been really sticking to the plan there is now way you could have gained any fat..it has to be water weight. I will be checking back to read if anyone has a way to improve self-esteem. As a mom when my kids get down and sad, I always remind them of all the special talents they have, I point out good traits both physical and characteristic..This seems to make them smile and think more positive..Good Luck!
Happy Tuesday!

don't get the pepsi
Don't get th pepsi, it's not worth it. This weight loss thing sucks ass. Especially when there are no results. I have no idea how to stay motivated in that situation. Don't get upset, but sometimes I think about the fact that it does happen that people die from being too thin so I guess it is possible to loose weight to that point(not to taht point exactly, but you know what I mean).
We both just have to shut our mouths and not eat, maybe there'll be more results that way.

evil scale!
I'm so sorry you saw a gain today. I know how FRUSTRATING that is! Can you hold off until you've done EFL a full week before you weigh again? (If you're a scale addict, I know that's asking a lot! lol)
I wish I could help you with the self esteem. I struggle with that too and I used to turn to food...but obviously that's not an option anymore. Hang in there, it WILL get better!
YES, I am working out again! I did Cathe workouts yesterday and today (Rhythmic Step and Step Fit). I didn't know you were also a Firmie!! I did my TransFirmer workouts over the weekend! Maybe you could treat yourself to a new workout DVD?
