Talk me through my day 3 frustration
| Tue, 10-03-2006 - 10:36am |
So I'm on day 3 of SBD phase 1 and following it faithfully. I have 30 pounds of postpartum weight to lose, and I'm pretty much weaned now from BF'ing (maybe pump 2 ounces in a day).
So the scale has not yet budged. How can I go from eating horribly (yes, horribly, pop tarts for breakfast, way too many carbs, a microwave popcorn snack in the afternoon, the list could go on and on) to eating so well and the scale hasn't budged?
I know, it's only day 3 and I have lots of time to go. I just had to get that frustration out. The cravings are getting to me today but I will be strong!

Mags is right. Just give it another day or two and you should see the scale move. Stick with it, you WILL see results!!
In the meantime, here are some tips that may help you stay on track:

Susan,
I feel your pain. I just started on Sunday. My scale is not moving either but I am feeling better. This is my thinking, I am not only losing weight but changing my life style. Mom said this to me the other day. You did not gain over night and you will not lose it over night. It is going to work just be patient.
