Plugging Away
 

Hello!

Just wanted to say Hi and reintroduce myself. I haven't been on 3FC for about a year, but I've reached a point where I keep just seem to be plugging away with weight loss and now at the end it's just very SLOW going. I know my biggest challenges to get through are the weekends and it seems like I can eat pretty healthy and work out Mon-Fri but then Saturday/Sunday comes and I tend to relax, have fun and eat all the wrong foods. Now I have a vacation coming up mid June and I'm ready to quit playing around and just lose the weight already! Anyone else hitting the wall at this point?

I've been hitting the wall for the past year or so. I can't seem to get over this "bump" which is not allowing me to lose any more. In fact, I've gained 5, so the 10 I needed to lost last summer has become the 15 I need to lose this summer. It's all too distressing! I even kicked it up a notch last year and started running. It didn't seem to help in the weigh loss department, but I did lose some flab on my legs and butt!

hey Vegas!
I just rejoined 3FC after a couple years of being gone. It's such a great site b/c I know when I post regulary, that my diet/health is my focus.

Hi Allison! I did about the same thing last year. I gained 5lbs after a vacation and then 5 more during the holidays and boy it's been tough to get off. I've had to try lots of different things and now I'm back to calorie cycling, working out with weights and cardio 5x a week and I'm hoping all that will work. I need to see the scale move, that really helps keep you motavated. Good for you with the running, toning up is always a good thing and it's something I'd also like to work on!

Hi batmom! I'm hoping coming on here will keep me motavated and on track!

Good luck to you guys! :)

I didn't get out for my run this morning. The heat is just too oppressive! I'm looking forward to getting my Mother's Day present--the kids got me the Wii Fit game!

What a cool Mother's day present! Sounds like a fun way to exercise!

Hi there! Welcome back :) I am fairly new here - I did register many years ago, but have not been on in many years.
