Stagnation

For weeks now, my weight as remained the same. I know that you usually get to a plateau, but it’s been so long now. I really want to continue losing weight and soon. I’ll see what happens on Sunday. By then, hopefully, something will have changed.

I still believe in my method, but I still need to do more. Change something so I’ll start losing weight again. First of all I need to understand why it’s stopped working, if that’s what’s happened. I still hope it’s just a temporary setback and that I’ll start losing weight rapidly.

I know that for a while now, I haven’t been strict enough. I used to go for walks every day and now I sometimes skip one. I know I shouldn’t do that. *Note to self: don’t skip daily walk.* In addition, I’ve stopped being strict about mealtimes. At times I might add an extra snack, just because I’ve lost count and forget I’ve already had the meals I’m allowed each day. I really need to get a grip.

Ok, what else has might have gone wrong? I’m depressed again. It’s always had a detrimental effect on my weight. That’s another thing I knew but it had slipped my mind. What I didn’t know is that my medication lowers the metabolism, so I have to work even harder. *Sigh*.

At the moment things are a bit rough. If anyone has any tips for how I can raise my metabolism, I’d be grateful.
