Plateau???? Frustrating!
Yep....That is what it is! I have been stuck at 275-280 for about a week now. I am not happy about it at all! I am still mega frustrated by my diet or lack of diet, I should say. I HATE cooking for my family, because it is generally a favorite meal of mine. I have been pouring over blogs and websites for ways to make family favorites more healthy, and they seem more complex, with ingredients that I don't have on hand or have never heard of before. I don't know if I am now vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, sugar free, or all of the above! I thought diabetes was tricky. I want to SCREAM!!!! I still have to take shots, and check my Blood Sugars, but now I can't eat anything....nor do I really want to, but my brain still loves all my favorites. :( If only the weight would still be dropping off like water....I might be handling this a bit better, but I am completely frustrated. I still don't necessarily feel the best...I have some pains still and I am still on oxygen. Plus I have a regular cold, which is making me even crankier than normal...my poor family. I might just go nuts before this is all over with. I have to find some way to get through all of this because in reality it will never be over, unless I want to gain it all back and be diabetic again. I have a friend considering this surgery, and I was telling her it was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Truth is....it is a LOT harder than I thought it would be. So far today I ate three spoonfuls of yogurt, and a slice of cheese....doesn't that just sound wonderful?? Not really when there is a pan of homemade enchiladas in the fridge. I just can't seem to switch off my mind from food to something else. I hope that this plateau moves on soon, because I need a break to see that this really was worth all that I gave up.
