something’s off
I’m doing something wrong… If i knew what it was then I’d fix it and be happy. and maybe I’m shallow for thinking that I’ll be happy based on what I look like but its been a constant struggle my entire life and I just want to finally have the things I’m working so hard for. Maybe I’m not working hard enough for them. Something’s wrong, something is off, something is just not right. I walk everywhere, I am at the gym either lifting, swimming or doing both at least 5 times a week, I eat sweets every once in a while but I’ve cut out breads, pasta’s, and all things to drink except tea (which is hot water) milk (occassionally after a work out) and water… I feel like a complete failure… maybe this isnt the place to write this but to be hoenst, I dont know where else to go… I just dont feel like myself. For a while I held onto the belief that things were going to change… well they havent been! I’ve been working my ass off for almost 8 weeks now, that’s 2 MTHS!! and nothing, if anything I think I’ve gained more weight. and please dont say "well you probably gained muscle and the fat will melt off"… last time it wasnt this hard. I swim! for 35-55 mins each time! Swimming helped me lose fat last year… whats wrong now then? Why is nothing nothing nothing working? Why can’t i stop craving food? Why can’t I stop thinking about food? Why am I wanting to eat all the time? Why is this just a constant struggle with myself?
I’m just so tired of it… I’m tired of struggling with myself… its getting to be just way too hard and i’m just not happy and I haven’t been….

Souds like you’ve hit a plateau. I suggest changing what you, or how long you do it, or how intense you do it. Meaning run rather than swim…swim longer durations…or hit the weights harder than before. The human body is very adaptible, so variety is a must for progress & success…Keep your body guessing! Hope this helps!

im with fella above, diet seems in check, but if your body has done some exercises previously it may just need some different intensity or different activities. Try a Hike instead of just a walk, lower rest periods for weights and make your meal portions smaller again( Just increase meal numbers I mean). I hope everything gets better really soon:)
