Subject: Crying this morning

I get so frustrated. My husband must think I'm crazy. This month I'm pulling out all the stops. I've told myself this. Going to stick to low carb, going to keep calories high enough, going to excercise every other day if not every day.

Well I've been doing that. Excercised yesterday, tried to drink enough water, took my vitamins, ate breakfast and lunch, didn't eat dinner though. Went to bed instead. Calories most likely weren't high enough, but once in awhile you would think that my body would appreciate a LOW calorie day. No it doesn't.

I still can't get rid of that stupid mind set. I knew last night I should eat something for dinner even if I wasn't hungry, but my old bad habits keep telling me that if I don't eat I will lose.

Scale didn't move at all today, a time or two I thought it was on the low side of 230, but then it seemed to go back up.

I'm so tired of being fat. So frustrated that all my efforts seem wasted. Struggle and struggle to do everything right and still I look like this ugly blimp. I hate having to force feed myself to get enough calories that I can lose. I am not totally convinced that is what is wrong in the first place, I know last month when I tried eating more for a few days I lost, but it is so hard to convince myself that is the problem. Too I know that when I do (if ever) lose weight I will have to get used to eating fewer calories again and I'm afraid to change and get used to more then have to change back.

In addition it is just extremely hard to increase calories and make them all fat and protein, how much of that stuff can a person stand to eat? In my case not much.

I just don't know what to do anymore. I'm so tired of trying so hard and getting so little result, and then when I do get something that works temporarily, I wind up going back up again. It is like my body says "THIS is what you will weigh and don't you dare try and change it."

I just want to cry.
