Yeah, I think I've hit one. And I hate em. I know its all part of this fun weight loss journey but it doesn't mean I have to like it or accept it!
So yesterday I stayed a bit under on calories, and I might do the same today. I'm contemplating staying between 1200-1300 all week, since lately my cals have been consistently higher. I took a very brisk walk yesterday, and even though I didn't note it on our Losin blog, I did some dancing last night with my ipod on, so got some more cal burn there too. I need to up the exercise, been way slacking on it. Anyone wanna go walk at the Galleria at lunch?
First step though, I had a good protein filled breakfast. Eggbeaters with salsa, sliced turkey, and a slice of cheese. It was YUMMY. I've already got my lunch/snacks plotted out on fitday for today. So I think I've gotta great start to the day. All I know is, this plateau can NOT last. I weigh in again this next saturday and it so better be GONE. November 12th is our 6 month mark, which leaves me 2 weeks and 2 days to get down 9 lbs (halfway mark to 180 lbs)...eekkkk. I don't think I'm gonna hit it but I'm hoping if I can bust this plateau it will go fast for a bit. We'll see. I had so hoped to hit it by November 8th (our Chera pics) but no way is that gonna happen.
Dang plateaus.
I'm on the same journey that you are to lose weight and coming from a very similar starting point as well. Your blog and your losing it together blog is awesome. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI did want to say that sometimes plateau's hit, and I have had one that lasted quite a while, i.e. several weeks. It's hard to keep going when you get there, but I am praying you will have the willpower to keep it up, and also that this plateau is short!
