Can't Seem to Shake Those Last 5 Pounds

As most of you know, since I can't stop talking about it, I've lost 45 pounds since January. This means that I am almost at my goal weight, which is the "maximum weight for all adults" my height. I am a mere 5 lbs away from this magical weight. Unfortunately, I've weighed the same thing, give or take a couple pounds, for nearly a month now, and it's really getting on my nerves.

I suppose I should be happy that I've gotten this far, and of course, I certainly don't look or feel fat any more.... but goddamnit! I've come this far... how hard should it be to lose another 5 lbs?! Rrrrrrggg!!!

The most frustrating thing of all is that there were two weeks when I really sluffed off my diet. I skipped going to the gym, I ate too much, I went drinking, and I didn't gain weight. I even lost a pound. In the third week I gained that pound back, so last week I tried really hard to stick to the points, exersize a lot, etc., and I thought for sure I was lose weight, but NO! I am still the same weight as last week, when I wasn't even trying.

Sorry to bore all of you by ranting about my weight like some kind of girl. Or as Case says, "Gurl". For my next entry I'll aim for something more intellectual, I swear.

Maybe you're hitting that magic number where the muscle is starting to weigh more than the fat you've lost?
