This sucks. I know I need to work past the anger and frustration. And while I know there is "no easy way" to do this, I can't help but resent that gaining this weight seemed like a piece of cake.
Or maybe a few pieces of cake. Dammit.

Please Don't Call It A Cake Walk

No fricking joke! I work so hard and have to be so good to go down a pound or two. But have a few bad days, and they're right back on. Blech.
I've heard that, when you lose weight, it essentially empties out the fat cells, but the cells themselves remain. So that's why it's so much easier to re-gain weight if you've been heavy before - your body doesn't have to create new cells, just fill the ones it has. Charming.
Exactly. And all that bullshit about "it takes time to put on the weight, so it takes time to take it off?" Yeah, why does it take six times as long to take it off?
surly, surly, grumble, grumble...
And did you have to post a photo of cake? Now I'm hungry. For cake.
(But I did just run/walk for 32 minutes, so fuck all y'all.)
I've hit a bit of a slump in the weight loss part but... I've gained some progress in the strength department. When I first started swimming a month ago, I was out of breath all the time. I could only swim FOUR strokes of butterfly. Yesterday, I butterflied the entire length of the pool-- I was gasping for breath but it was worth it.
But damn it-- why doesn't the scale budge?
that cake was from my son's birthday party, it was dry and tasted like crap.
Better?
GIP,
I want to put bars on my cells so the fat can't get back in.
Karen,
I have a deep appreciation for the abilty to "fly" it's not easy!
