I was holding steady between 174-174.5 and this morning I saw 173.5. Only a half a pound, but finally moving in the right direction. I'm drinking between 180-200 ounces of water and walking 45 min./day. That's why it was SO frustrating that I wasn't losing. I hope I have a bigger loss soon!

So for those of you who have yet to experience your plateau, just hang in there. Take it from me, someone who has followed the program 100% for the past 3 months, it's VERY frustrating!!

NoahsMama...oh such great news for you....I can't imagine how depressing that plateau is going to be...thank goodness when it happens, I will have you lovely posters to get me through it.

Ok, I have a question for you...how do you drink so much water and not have to take a potty break when you walk 45 minutes??? Do you have to wear depends? If so, I had better put them on my grocery list this weekend. :D

Good morning all! I want to report good news. :carrot: I got on the home scale this morning and I was down to 198.2, so I hope this shows tomorrow at WI so I can get the yellow menu and get off precon. I am a little nervous about the yellow menu; I hope I dont have to eat salad all the time. It is just too hard to stomach that much lettuce with so little dressing. LOL!

I am going in before lunch to WI. I will keep you all posted.

Hi All,
Computer not working again at home, so I am quickly checking in at work.
Fifties Lady, so happy you joined. You will be an inspiration to us all.

Well, I had a complete off plan dinner last night. My best friend is moving to Omaha to take care of her grandmother. So, my friend Scott, Bridget (the one moving) and I went out to dinner. It was fabulous. It was a upscale restaurant that had a set menu. We just chose from 3 different entrees and selected the wine. I ended up having 2 glasses of wine, eating only half of soup, appetizer and chicken with veggies, (but it was so good!) and eating the dessert was black forest cake. Ate the whole lovely thing! Thought I would have cravings for carbs but went right back on plan today with only some swelling around my feet, dang that salt! I know I will pay for it come WI but I don't think I would change a thing. It was sad, she is the sister of my heart.
