Feeling bad about myself

@MikesAngel317 I have been doing that combo and after 3 weeks I'm finally seeing its paying off. I wish the same for you! Don't work out too hard. I don't count calories because I feel it makes people go insane. But I just consider in general, i had roughly x amount of extra calories plus it was unhealthy. For every minute of jumping jacks you burn about 10% of your weight. So just some real quick math if I typically do 3 mins I'll just do an extra min and that should cover the extra amount. Or I just ate half a pizza, oops, I'll just do an extra 2 mins of jumping jacks. You know? Like don't obsess over it just kinda add a lil extra to your routine :) I hope that helps!

@taciaelisepeace yes, that helps thank you. I have been obsessing the past few weeks because I am watching what I eat yet still gaining. I don't understand it. I thought I would see some results by now, definitely didn't expect to be gaining weight.

That's what I plan on doing today, extra exercise and light eating, plus a lot of water.

@MikesAngel317 Exactly

Plus stress can cause weight gain, so I don't need that!

Yes, I definitely don't want my body going into starvation mode. That's no good.

That's a good idea, I didn't think about that. Thanks!

Thank you for the encouraging words. That is what I need to remember, tomorrow is a new day. That helps.

@MikesAngel317 Result is not a one day process it could take days or months before you can see some results. Don't feel bad about it because it could affect your motivation in reducing your weight just be happy all the time.

@rheicel I know it's not an overnight thing, but it's been about a month now. I was just expecting to see a little results from my hard work. It's really hard to stay motivated without results.

It would be different if I was seeing some results, one cheat day wouldn't be so bad.

@MikesAngel317 One day a week, have a free food day. Many studies show this helps.

@Spontaneo really? But I'm already having a tough time losing weight.. since I have been watching what I eat the past few weeks I have gained 2lbs. I don't get it.

I feel like I did though, almost 2000 cals.

Thank you, I am trying to remain positive.

@tmosby thanks so much for the kind words. Today is a new day

@MikesAngel317 Yes, be positive and look at the things from the positive side. You will see lots of qualities within you that you yourself haven't noticed before.
