Not comfortable.

I have always been kind of finicky about my weight. I am 5'3" and 128lbs. Lately I just cannot seem to get comfortable with my body. I am using MYFITNESSPAL to track my calories, exercising daily, taking raspberry keytones and womens one a day vitamins. I cannot seem to lose any more weight. Its like I hit a wall. I am trying SO hard. I want to be a comfortable 118. I want my husband to be proud to be married to me. I want to be comfortable with myself. Any other suggestions, ladies? Any advice?

This is me and my husband at the zoo. 02/05/2013


P.S. Please add me on MYFITNESSPAL

Uhhh I think you look great!

Quoting Boobie On Demand:" Uhhh I think you look great!"

Thanks so much, I just can't help but to feel horrible about myself. Its starting to cause problems, because I don't even have sex with my husband naked. I am that uncomfortable. I feel atrocious.

What exercises are you doing? I lost 20 pounds a few years ago when I had been up to 125 (I'm the same height as you) just by using an elliptical for at least an hour 5 times a week.

ETA: I also calorie counted. I think you look great, btw, but from someone who's been there, I understand.  

I wish I looked like that. What parts of your body are you uncomfortable with? I'd say work on those areas, and dont worry about how much you weigh. The number means nothing, it is about being toned.

Thanks, I wish I had an elliptical. I just do home workouts. Yoga, Zumba, 200jumping jacks, 200 crunches, house work, etc.

Aw mama I'm sorry. I know what that's like, I'm not too comfortable with how I look either. What exercises are you doing? Make sure your switching it up and often because it'll help shred those last pounds you want gone.

maybe incorporate some jogging? I know the weather might not be that great for it right now, but I think actually getting out and moving may help. If I wasn't on the elliptical I was jogging. I also did yoga, forgot about that.
Sounds like what you're doing should get you somewhere, just keep at it. Just because you don't see progress, doesn't mean you're not progressing. muscle weighs more than fat.  

ETA: I didn't mean "actually getting out and moving" as mean as it sounds.   lol I just meant incorporate something other than the stay in one place exercises.

lol thanks so much. I'll for sure do that.
