Well, I _thought_ I'd broken my stall, but I went for my last weigh-in
at
Curves today, and I was down a half pound. Which is back to what I was
in
January. I go from 156 to 156.5 and back to 156, with likewise minute
fluctuations in measurements that are probably due to different people
measuring me in slightly different ways.

I've been working out 5 - 6 days a week, weight lifting 3x a week,
cardio
as a warm up on weight days, and more cardio on non-weight days. I'm
pushing myself as hard as I can on the working out. I've been
averaging
around 1200 calories a day, about 30g of carbs a day.

I'm NOT giving up on low-carb. I like eating this way, and at least
I'm
not gaining. I'm not giving up on exercise either, because I like it
too.
But I guess I need to give up on losing any more weight, because
apparently
this is where my body wants to be, and to tell you the truth I'd rather
be
at this weight forever than eat any less, because I'm already
restricting
myself enough so that it's a pain in the butt and I'm hungry most of
the
time. I've butched up about as much as I can. No, that's not true, I
could eat less. I could force myself to eat one small salad a day and
nothing else. But what's the point? Been there, done that, hated
every
minute of it way more than I hate being fat. I'm not saying I love to
pig
out more than I hate being fat, it's not about wanting to eat huge
portions
of stuff, it's about how I don't think I could stick with being hungry
when
I go to bed, hungry when I wake up, hungry all day long, stomach
growling
loud enough that other people can hear it, ****ed off because I've
just
eaten a hard boiled egg for lunch and I'm still hungry, for the rest of
my
life. I have always been skeptical about people who say they don't eat
a
lot and they do exercise but they can't lose weight, and now look at
me,
I've become what I ridiculed. Whatever. **** it.

I have only 3 flaws. My first flaw is thinking that I only have 3
flaws.
Michelle,
This is what works for me. I eat lots of food. But the foods I eat
have helped me to lose 58 lbs in 11 weeks. Foods high in carbs
(Potatoes, rice, beans, cereal, oatmeal, grains) and lots of veggies
and fruits. If you restrict your diet (particularly your sodium
intake) to these kinds of foods, the weight will come off. Don't skip
meals or reduce the amount of food your body needs to lose weight.
Remember, if you don't eat enough food, your body will not burn up
those "fat" cells. Your body is not stupid. If you don't give it the
food that it needs to run its machine, it holds onto the "fat" cells as
a protective mechanism. Just eat the right kinds of food and limit your
sodium intake to 500mgs of sodium a day. Good luck!
Sterling
