Impatient

I got on the scale this morning with high hopes that I would have budged at least a pound.  I knew I was going to be disappointed because I'm on my period and not only that, retaining water.  I did it anyways.  I feel like I am working my butt off.  What is the deal?  I have gone to the gym every day except Sunday-yesterday and Saturday I spent a whole hour on the treadmill. 35 minutes of that hour yesterday where running.  Then I came home did a 15 minute ab video and worked out my arms.  My diet has changed significantly.  So what is the deal???? 

 I so desperately want to be in the 140's.  I haven't seen those numbers since shortly after Ron and I were married.  I would like to think I gained all the weight from my birth control.  That was the first time in my life I had ever put on so much weight so quickly except for about ten pounds slowly over the course of my first few semesters at college. 

This is me my second semester of college.  Not as skinny as I was in high school but still skinny!!!

I want my tiny waist back, my flat stomach and no more love handles! 

Anyways-while I was griping to Ron last night he asked if I was pushing myself hard enough?!  So this is what I am going to do.  1 hour on the treadmill again.  I am going to run for 30 minutes straight (the most I have run straight is 20 min thus far).  After an hour on the treadmill I am going to do 30 minutes on the elliptical.  If that doesn't work I am going to push myself more.  This is the last week I have at the gym so I am going to take full advantage of it.
