Broke Through!
 
I have been stuck on a plateau for two. full. months! And today I finally broke through and got below 180! I am so happy! And so glad that I stuck it out and didn't give up! It would have been so easy to think "it's not working" and just drop the plan.

Now I feel energized and inspired to keep going! I even went for an extra walk this evening just because I felt so good. :D

Jay :carrot:

WTG Jay! Gosh, I know exactly how you feel. I was also on a two month plateau and recently (FINALLY) lost some. Boy, was it worth sticking it out! I thought it would never happen but never gave up. We can do this!

CONGRATS!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!

You ARE an inspiration! I started my second go at this on March 1st, and haven't dropped below 180 yet. What I find frustrating is just on Jan 1st of this year I weighed 176. Not so sure why it is so hard to get back off - ugh. But reading your post has inspired me to keep going!

Way to Go!! I applaud your commitment and determination. Congratulations.

Wtg, I have experienced difficult plateau's also and it can be so frustrating. I try to remain positive during these times and change up my exercise routine a little to see if it will help. Usually I just have to wait it out. I am certainly not going to quit, because I can see how far my weight loss plan has taken me. Congrat's and Good Luck

absolutely don't give up girls!!! always keep pressing forward. to let up, is to slip up and become what we have fought so hard to change. :)

For sure, Lumi! Got to keep going! My plateau has lasted a little over a week and it is driving me nuts LOL! But the next pound was barely clinging to life this morning; LOL I kept trying to make the scale say it was gone but alas... it just wouldn't go quite over! Maybe tomorrow!!!
