So I weighed in and looks like I only lost half a pound this week. I am totally ok with that though. I don't want to make it a habit but my eating was off plan about 4/7 days so it's ok. Also gives me hope that I will not gain on the holidays. This is good! And it proves to me that you guys were right: I CAN eat 1600 cals and still lose weight. I was all "I went over 1200 I ruined it!" and you all told me it was ok. Thank you!
It is hard to set our expectations at realistic levels sometimes, but so much more effective, and easier not to become disheartened.
Last month I had a 19 day plateau where I did not lose anything at all. ARGH. But I hung in there and suddenly dropped quite a few in a row. It is just unpredictable and does not always happen when we want it to. But it WILL happen if we just hang in there.
Ok with a slow week
