Default 2 weeks is not a plateau!

Unless you are the one in it!

My weight loss was steady for 3 weeks, and then boom - 2 pound gain and that held steady for 2 weeks. While I was training for and then competing in an obstacle course one weekend and a triathlon the next!

So so frustrating.

I kept repeating the advice I see on here - stick with your plan, up your protein, keep going, this is normal, the scale lies, measure yourself, etc. etc.

And finally today down a pound and a half! And yesterday 2 pairs of smaller pants I own fit me.

So, stick with your plan, up your protein, keep going, this is normal, the scale lies, measure yourself.

Been there done that-lol, glad you stuck through it! And yes, measure...every Sunday night I measure and when I had my 2 week of nothing on the scale the inches said differently!

Good Job hanging in there!!!

This has really made me start to think that I need to do measurements. All I've been doing is looking at the scale. Thank you!
