Convenient Theories For You Monthly

I've been feeling really frustrated lately. I've been working my ass off and haven't had an on-scale victory since October. I'm still dedicated, but I can't help but vent out some frustration.

I am still making and meeting monthly goals. I am still challenging myself. I am currently and consistently getting 1 hour of cardio 4 times a week, and 1 hour of strength training 4 times a week. And, I do different activities so I'm not just doing the same thing over and over. I am being mindful and thoughtful of the foods I'm putting in my body. I am eating REAL foods. I'm being upfront and logging everything into MFP.

What the shit? 

Before I got pregnant I was sitting at 193. On my 7th week of pregnancy I was 188 (right when I got back from HC). I lost the baby, and I was 202. And then a few weeks later I was 215, and have been sitting there for a LONG time-- over a month and a half (I'm currently 212.8). 

It baffles me, because I know that I am doing the work, eating correctly, drinking tons of water, and logging. I am going to continue doing what I'm doing, despite my frustration, I know I'm making good choices.

Maybe it's just also time to up-the-ante with the good choices, bite-the-bullet, and start eating Gluten-free again. I feel like I should mention that I'm not one of those people that think that Gluten is the enemy. I try to be a firm believer in too much anything can be bad for you, and moderation is always key. However, since there is SO MUCH more information on the internet about PCOS then there was in 2007 when I was diagnosed, especially in regards to fertility/PCOS, and being gluten-free that it is nearly negligent of me to ignore the benefits of going Gluten-free in regards to taking control of PCOS.

I guess I'm just tired of the lack of help from the medical community, being told that if I lose weight that my symptoms will improve, trying so much harder than the average person and getting far-less in return, and the general lack of information out there about Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

Anyways, I guess this morning's biscuit was my fare-well kiss off to the Gluten. It's better to start making these health decisions now then in the future with the challenge of kids, right? Right. Plus, as always, the kids will provide good practice between now and then.

I am going to buy this book as soon as possible, and I also enjoyed this web-site today:

Now, I gotta get my butt on the Elliptical Trainer prior to work. I'm think of just working cardio today, and working the strength, plus cardio tomorrow (MY DAY OFF, FUCK YEAH!), and Jess will be home tomorrow. DOUBLE FUCK YEAH.
