Not losing is driving me nuts! I've always been able to get back to doing what I should be doing and go down. Easily. Mental. Mental. Mental. I will think positively. I can. I can. I can.

I've also been doing a little research on protein and what I should have when I'm training or very active. I should be losing - I'm within my points or dang close and I'm working out -ug. I should be getting anywhere from 103 grams of protein (active) to 143 grams of protein (extremely active). I'm not anywhere close to that. Yesterday, I had 79.6 grams. That's less than half. Today, I've added it up all day and as of right now I am at 94 grams. Closer but not quite there. Dinner will be protein based. Gotta think -- what to have??? One cup of ground beef has 29.8 g - that will get me close enough for the day at 123.8 g.

I'm going to work on staying within or close to my points and focusing on protein to see if that makes a difference. I should know after a week... right? I may even vary the amount needed by the day depending on my activity level. On days that I cross train and run or have a long run the amount required will be higher. Easier days will be lower. Does that make sense? In my head it does and hoping my body will catch on.
