i know that i am always like little miss positive... but today its not happening. i know that i am doing good at 24 lost so far and i am ceritanly proud of that but i am not feeling good today. i didnt lose anything last week bc i slipped too many times and my body doesnt wanna seem to come out of that. i have done really well with eating, even having some stir fry to get in my veggies more.... and i dont think i am losing anything still. i got on the scale and of course it was stupid this morning. i know its only been 1 days since i weighed in and im not supposed to look, but it said i was 2 up so i stepped off and back on then i was even to the 301 again... its so annoying. i dont know what i am doing. i feel like everything is falling down on me. and now my hubby started atkins, which i am SO happy about. he is on med for his sugar and he was told if he didnt get it under control that he would become diabetic... his sugar is down which is awesome. when he went to the doc last week he was at 370 lbs... our scale will only weigh at 350 and under... once he can see his number i know he will really see how well this works. BUT we all know how men are and it takes them half the damn effort to lose twice what the women lose... so i know this sounds selfish... but im not looking forward to him beating my number. i know that i want him to do really well bc i need him with me and he needs his health but i dont know how i am going to handle it when he really is losing faster then me. will i be able to keep up with him? and if i cant i am afraid that i am going to lose focus. i REALLLLLy hope that this all works out. i need to lose this weight not only for me and for him but for our future family. i will never have a baby until i do this. and with another heartbreak of a negative pregnancy test just the other day im just DOWN DOWN DOWN.
ok done the pitty party, sorry for anyone who really sat through that. my intentention is not for sympothy, i just dont have anyone really to talk to about all this without seeming like a cry baby selfish little brat!!

In my opinion, you need to wrap your mind around "I slipped too many times last week". The thing is, you are hurting yourself, and your long term efforts when you do this. Sure you didn't gain back the 24 lbs lost. And that's good. but you basically keep hitting the metabolic reset button on the inside of you. Your body doesn't know what you're doing - it just knows nutrients. Fats, Carbs, Proteins. And in order for this way of eating to work as a lifestyle for you, you will need to come to terms with being fully committed to maintaining a low carb way of eating. It takes time for your body to revert back to ketosis, and to again start burning off stored fat for fuel, since the typical source of fuel from Carbs is no longer available. But that can take anywhere from 2-14 days, depending on the excess you gave it, your own body and it's metabolic history, etc... so back to a clean 14 day induction menu to really get all things working in sync again! Try your best to ignore your husbands progress, as men typically do great w/ this type of eating, and he may fly by you! If he does, just be excited and supportive to him... and see yourself following soon behind!! Keep your eyes on your overall long term goals. You'll get there. And so what if it's 6 months after him... really! At least you'll get there. And both of you will be healthier and happier for it!

You are in the right place to have SUPPORT when you're feeling DOWN. We all get that way, but the important thing is to learn from your week of slip-ups. I so agree with jsfantome, you must commit to this as a way of life and not just another diet. With your hubby being on Atkins too, you will have a support system right there and he will have his. Yes, men just have to "think" to lose weight and it isn't right but slow is the only way this will work and last.
Keep your chin up and keep the faith. We are here for you and don't be afraid to reach out for support and help.
