We Kin Get Thin!

Today, I have officially not lost any weight for 2 months. That means 8.5 weeks, or 59 days.

Frustrating as hell, let me tell you.

I have been eating a little too much fake stuff lately. Sugar-free candies and snacks and the such. I've been diligent about staying within my carb limit, but I still feel a little off-track with eating. Unfortunately, it takes the encouragement of weight loss (or the loss of inches) to keep me wanting to stay all inductiony in nature, all the time. I really enjoy my low carb bread, and diet soda and all that... but I am definitely not losing on it. But I am maintaining, which gives me sweet sweet hope. Because I am happy with what I eat now, and I can imagine living like this forever.

But what will make me LOSE weight now? Probably just solid exercise. So, I'll keep on with that. I know it's great for me, but it doesn't seem to be helping to take the pounds off either.

I will say, thinking about it... I am actually *amazed* that I am not losing.
I still have more than 80lbs extra fat on my body. I eat less calories than needed to maintain that weight. I exercise often. I eat 30g of carbs per day. My thyroid is completely fine.
Isn't that nearly scientifically impossible?

Ah well. You've heard my complaining enough!

Doc appt was just fine. Did the usuals. I even got a flue shot! How exciting.
I asked her about my weird hunger pangs after eating. She agreed that it was weird, but didn't think it was anything to worry about it. I agreed.
I also asked her about the weight loss stalls. She gave me such a sweet face and said that is must be so discouraging. I agreed to that as well! I told her I was eating low carb, to which she said "Good!". I, of course, agreed with that too!

So, she wanted me to get my cholesterol checked anyway (she likes to check once in the 20's, especially with my family history, but it's not a concern!), so she added some thyroid and blood sugar tests to the mix. I'll get those done tomorrow.

I really don't think it will turn up anything. I think that it is simply a combo of genetics and PCOS that is stunting my loss. And nothing will help that but persistence and time.
