Feeling discouraged and pissed off today. I am so trying not to let my weight be an issue and go with the flow but WTF! Just seems to be a never ending cycle where i canāt win.
a little background
2.5 years ago I developed health issues (still trying to figure them out). Gained 40 lbs in 1 month time frame and still havenāt been able to get rid of this. I do manage 5-8 lbs and then gain it back like overnight and the cycle keeps going due to my chronic inflammation that i developed.
So in March I decided that I would start being more active and not care about the weight. From March to mid May I gained 10 lbs. I then slowly started to see this going down and was almost back to the number I started off in March and then two days ago BAM I gained 3 lbs. I have a healthy diet. Eat with a calorie deficitā¦ etc!
I am just pissed off right now and needed to ventā¦ had to write it out so it was not in my head LOL.
Iāll be fineā¦ gonna continue doing what i am doing and hope that one day iāll see results.

Oh man! I felt that vent in my soul. The weight has been creeping on me too. I gain a Lb or two or three, sometimes overnight and then I work for a week to lose them and then they come back. I got a scale on amazon that breaks the weight down for me and it has been helpful to see that
The overweight part still hurts my feels though

Awe thanks loveā¦ appreciate the read and response.
I donāt think that number is looked at as overweight in the proper health journals. I do know how devastating it can be to see your chart show it as such. I wish they would start being more realistic.
Sorry that you can relate ā¦lets keep doing our thang and keep kicking ass 
. So grateful to be here in this journey with you.

I got a Renpho scale off Amazon. I feel the frustration with yāall. I just know that Iām getting started in this and I will fluctuate with losing fat and gaining muscle until I find a steady routine. The burpees will probably help me

Got another 200 burpees done in the gym just before the end of shift.
Still 200 short after my days off last week, but thought today should be a day to catch up on some as its my birthday. Had to get a bit extra in to prove Iām still a ways from the grave.

Thanks for the bday wishes. Started the first day of my 43rd year with sparring. Most of those training would be 10-20yrs younger, a couple even 25yrs.
Good times.
