So about a week ago my mom, cousin, and I all started our diets because we all want to loose weight. My cousin (Kenia) is a nutritionist so she set up a strict diet for all of us to follow. Since my cousin and I are around the same age and height, we got the same diet. My mother got a different one. For a week we stayed on track and only ate what we were allowed to eat. At the end of the week we all weighed ourselves and my mom had lost 5lbs and my cousin 3. I lost none. I know every body is different and that maybe I just need more time to see a difference in mine but I’m about 15lbs heavier than my cousin who’s dieting with us so I was expected to loose more weight. I’m just feeling really discouraged. Kenia told us we should expect to lose about 2lbs a week and I had lost one but gained it back. On top of that I was starting to make going to the gym a habit again and even ran a 5k over the weekend and sprained my ankle really bad. I haven’t been able to walk for a week and I feel like all the progress I was making just went to shit. I thought starting this diet was going to keep me motivated while I couldn’t go to the gym but now it feels like a giant waste of time. I’m feeling like I could have ate the foods I was craving and still have been the same weight. I started at 150lbs, got down to 149lbs after three days and I’m back at 150lbs today. To make things worse I’m going on a trip this week and I won’t be able to keep up with the new diet Kenia is going to make for all of us. I’m at the heaviest I’ve ever been and I’ve never been one to loose weight when dieting. Even in high school when I was in wrestling and cross country I tried to loose weight to get to a specific weight class and I just couldn’t loose the extra pounds. It was so frustrating. People told me “you’re already thin it’s harder to lose weight at 135lbs”. Everyone around me seems to shed the pounds off when they really try. Not just heavier people but also really thin ones too. I don’t know how much harder I have to try but nothing seems to ever work for me. A year ago I was working an extremely physically demanding job basically running for 8+ hours a day while going to the gym to run some more after work. I was counting my calories and never going over 1,800 a day for over a month and only ever lost one pound. I have a weigh in coming up in a couple of months for my job now and I’m 10lbs overweight. I thought it was going to be easy this time around since I had an actual nutritionist telling me what I can and cannot eat but now I’m worried I won’t be able to lose that weight by June. I apologize for the the big wall of text, I’m just feeling pretty bummed out about it all and I don’t want to be talking all negative around my mom and cousin who are happy about their progress.
