Fit Friday: February 20

Weigh in: 180

Sigh.

I saw 179 this week. Honest, I did.

I'm feeling VERY frustrated and let down right now about my weight.  I ate VERY well this week. I worked hard to make great choices.  I even dealt with some real hunger issues and pushed through.

And I've got a whole .2ounces of loss to show for it. Sigh.

Also, baby's weigh in this morning showed he's only gained 3 ounces in the past TWO weeks. That's half of what he was gaining before I started working hard on my diet again.  Sigh.

So.  Right now my mind sees this:

Modified 6 week plan (adding in some extra oats and fats for nursing) = drop in baby's growth and almost zero weight loss for me = This Isn't Working.

And, so, now I have to ask:  What am I supposed to do now?  I'm definitely confused and need some encouraging advice.  I'm not looking to set aside our plant-based diet.  But, I really wish I could understand WHY my body works like this while nursing a baby.  What is it doing? What does it need? How can I make this work right? 

Sigh.
