I weighed in today to see a loss of 1.4lbs. Now I know I should be happy but the PMS (poor me syndrome) is invading my thoughts. I honestly expected so much more. I was starving everyday this week and I thought I'd see at least my 2lbs gone that I gained at Christmas. I know its still a loss and a pretty good loss, but I guess I set myself up by expecting a Biggest Loser weigh in.
OK, over it. 1.4 gone and still going down.
So my little monkey got her first stomach bug last night :(. I was just thinking, wow she didn't get the stomach flu the whole time I breastfed, it must have been because of that. 1 week later she gets one, I jinxed myself :P. She's good now and I'm hoping it doesn't spread, fingers crossed.
Well off to read some more blogs!

You should be proud of yourself, it's a great loss!
1.4 pounds is great - I understand the Poor Me Syndrome though! I am feeling the same way!!
I don't know what in the world you're beating yourself up about. 1.4 pounds is absolutely amazing! Have you had better losses? Sure. But the lower your weight gets, the hard it's gonna be to keep getting those big losses each week. This is one I've had to struggle with through out the entire last year. The first 60 pounds were a piece of cake. I didn't even have to really work all that hard at it. But after that, my weight loss came to a screeching halt and losing more than a pound each week became nearly impossible, no matter how much I sacrificed or went hungry. You just need to get onto a different rail road track to finish your journey to the town of goal. I started at almost the same weight you started at. My train ride began in May 2007. I still haven't lost my 100 pounds yet. My goal is 133 to have lost half my weight. I just know, now, that my losses will come slower the closer I get to my goal. That's something I wish I would have learned a year ago. :|
BTW, Go Team Angie!
I understand what you said about expecting more BUT I am thrilled for you and your loss this week! We could be headed back in the other direction right?
