Peace with my plateau :-)
Sep 27 2006 12:16

I am in a plateau, My weight was 148.4 this morning. I have been drinking more coffee since I started back to school (I am a preschool director). I do drink 100 ounces of water a day still. The children activities at night (football, swim lessons, scouts, band, chorus, etc) are making it harder for me to find time to exercise. My eating has changed alittle since I am now packing my lunch and snacks.

I have come to the conclusion that I need to be happy to just maintain my weight loss for the next few months and then try to continue to lose after the holidays.

Clothes !!! I really have to go thru my clothes and get rid of everything that is a size 16 or larger. One of my teachers just gave me a bag of 10 and 12 size clothes. It felt weird to actual fit into the clothes that I was wearing. Almost everything I have is big on me.

I have been so tired!!! I have had a cold since preschool started. I cannot wait until I can stop blowing my nose :-)

Did I rant enough today :-))) I know I am not alone in plateau land. I hope we all can get past our plateaus!!!

hope your cold gets better soon. they're yucky!

shake up your calories and your exercise plan. confuse your metabolism.. maybe it will let go of a lb.

congrats on the smaller sizes. as long as you wear size -----, do you care what the scales say!!!

love, Karen
