Default Plateau

I was horriably upset this morning when I stepped on the scale and saw I only lost a half of a pound. A half a pound is better than nothing but... For the past 2 weeks I am stuck on this nasty plateau that seems like it just won't break. After the first week I read the forum up above "Plateau Busting ideas" and took everything in. I didn't excerise that much because of a nasty head cold I had but I did eat the heathiest I ever did. I thought for sure I would have lost a little bit more. Then my boyfriend ( who is also on WW) ate everything in sight and lost 3 pounds! *sighs* Damn thoes men!
I just have to keep my head up. I WILL BEAT THIS PLATEAU!

You are going to get past it. I hear what you are saying about men! Ugh my husband eats like crazy and still stays the same. I look at ice cream and my jeans get tighter!

I do not if it works because I am new but my Aunt who is a life weight watchers member (lost 85lb 6 yrs ago and kept it off) told me the other day when she would hit a plateau that she would drink water until she though it was going to come out her ears...lol I am not sure what difference that would make as far as plateaus but that was her tip to me.

Good luck and I will check in Sat and I am sure you will be here beeming about overcoming it!!!

Brittany, what plan are you doing? Have you tried stitching plans to kick your body into gear? I know sometimes it helps to shake things up a bit. You could also try changing up your workouts too. Just a suggestion!

I am going to take that advice about the water! I try to drink as much as I can per day but god there is only so much a girl can take! I do the flex plan. I do use most of my 35 flex points but I mostly use them during the weekend. ( my boyfriends family has sunday dinner and we normally go out to dinner with a couple friends on the weekend also). Could that be something sence my weigh in is on a Monday? Thanks for all the support it REALLY means alot

The weekend splurge could be the culprit. It seems like it should level itself out though. Let us know how the water goes!
