Good News for All!!!

Well I finally figured out how to break my plateau!!! I was going to the gym 5 days a week and just about killing myself and my girlfriend that I go with suggested we maybe drop down to 3 days a week. Best decision I ever made after the first week of doing this bammmm 5 lbs gone the first week. I haven't lost 5 lbs at one time since September and then I was scared it would catch up with me but just weighed myself again and wow!!!! another 4 lbs gone. I am so happy I have to tell everyone! I know we are all slowing down and trying different things but I just thought I would let everyone know what helped me out. Hope this helps someone. Good Luck to all, only 30 lbs to go!!!!!! Rhen

Rhen, I too found that the week I slacked on my exercise a little I lost the most, I took two days off and turned down the intensity two other days and then I lost a pound a day for that week. I also upped my protein to two drinks a day and I think that helped. It is hard to let yourself drop back on the workout when you know it is good for you to be doing it, plus I have so much more energy I enjoy using it, but it was worth it in my case as well. I have 10 more to go and think I will try and do that again next week and see what happens. Best wishes, Janelle

Yup, Sometime we just try too hard to get this done. Glad you are on the losing side again. Marilyn, the Bearlady
