Hi everyone— So I’ve been stuck at around the same weight since October. I finally broke the plateau right before the holidays, but of course, gained it all back. I think I’ve finally kicked the holiday weight, but I’ve been really down on myself lately.
Something I’ve noticed, and I’m wondering if others have experienced this—when I first hit my current weight, I was ELATED and felt so proud of my body. I loved to look at myself in the mirror and saw all the progress I had made.
But now, I look at myself and I feel like I look like I was before I started (even though I know I don’t.) I see everything I want to lose and am having a hard time appreciating where I came from. I’m always having a hard time envisioning myself teaching my final goal (which is another 25 pounds or so.)
Has anyone else experienced this? What did you do to counteract? Was feeling this way motivating to you or did it keep you feeling bad about yourself?
Also, advice for cracking down and getting through the plateau is welcome!
Thanks!
