Hello all! I’ve been a constant reader of this thread since May, when I started on my weight loss plan. Since then, as of this morning, I’ve lost 30 lbs! (F, 5’4, 24, SW 191 CW 159 GW 130) I’ve been laser focused, which is why I think I’ve been successful. I exercise 5 days a week, burning around 350-400 calories per session. Not a lot, I know, but my endurance is improving which gives me hope for more intense workouts in the future. CICO has been the main reason I’ve lost weight, as well. Clothes fit me better, I don’t hate looking at myself in the mirror anymore, all around my quality of life has improved more than I can even say. However, despite my determination & whatever success I’ve attained, this halfway mark is so daunting for me. I know I’m going to have to work even harder & when that scale isn’t going down as steadily as it has been, I’m so afraid I’m going to give up or slack off. It almost feels like the scale just told me, “Hey good job! Now, you get to start all over again & it’s going to be 2x as challenging! Best of luck!” Is anyone else getting the halfway point jitters? And if you have been through them, any words of wisdom or encouragement of how you overcame would be welcome here!
