I am feeling so disheartened this morning. I weighed myself this morning and am 11st4. This seems to be the weight I plateau at whatever I do. I was this weight for the year or so before I got pregnant with DC1 (now 3.10), briefly got back down to it before getting pregnant with DC2 (now 15mths) and have been between this and 11st 7 for most of the year. On about 8 different days, I have been 11st 3 (yes, I do weigh myself daily) but have never got down to 11st 2. It seems impossible. At only 5'4", I need to get down to 10st 6 just to be a healthy BMI.
At the moment, I am eating 1300 cals a day & doing the Shred. Given I'd done no exercise for ages (hip issues), I was hoping merely doing the Shred (20 mins a day for the uninitiated) was going to work miracles but it hasn't. What can I do? It's enough of a struggle fitting in the Shred and the two weekly Zumba classes I do so I can't increase exercise. Nor do I feel I can eat less. I haven't drunk for months.
Is anyone else struggling like this? So many posters on here seem to be able to lose a stone a month. I'm not! I do have PCOS but does that really make a difference? I feel as though I'm becoming a complete diet bore. I also want to get the weight gone & work out what I can eat & maintain sooner rather than later as DC1 is currently oblivious to the fact that I've spent most of her lifetime on a diet but she's getting ever more aware and I don't want her to know.
Sorry, this is a complete whinge but its such a dull topic and I don't want to bore any of my RL friends or DP any more.
