Hi Carol, I will email you the plateau buster diet, and also paste here.... (I found it on someone else's profile). I have been following this faithfully for a few days now (6?) and will weigh in on Monday. Will let everyone know how it worked.... Jennifer suggested that I go on www.fitday.com and record all my calories, and what an eye-opener that has been. I had been eating much more than I thought. Good luck, you're doing wonderful so far and will succeed in losing the rest if you stay positive and focused. I know how discouraging not losing can be, but as others have reminded me, look how far we've come! Diane

Good afternoon everyone. I have a few questions and i hope some of you can help. I am almost 10 month out of surgery. I have lost 103 pounds. But for the last month or so I have been up and down 2 to 3 pounds. i am going crazy. I really want to lose another 20 pounds to be really happy and reach my goal. Is this possible. What do I have to do. I went on a trip and I ate like crazy and I got really scared that I had gained like 10 pounds but when I returned home I weighed myself and noticed that I had lost another 7 pounds. I went to Cuba abd there you really have to walk alot. So that inspired me and now I started to walk every night. I just began 2 days ago. I read something about Plateau Busters and also Fitday.com. I have never heard anything about these. Can someone please explain what these are and if they can help me. My other email is [email protected]. Any help you can give me i would really appriciate it. I am desprite and I want to reach my goal. I am happy about how far I have came but you know you always want more. Everyone tells me how great i look and now they call me skinny. But I want 20 more pounds. I have gone from a size 22 to a size 10. I can even fit in a size 8 tight. So i am really happy about that. Well I'll wait to see if anyone can give me some advise. Hope your all doing well and the best of luck to you all. XOXOXOXOXOXO Carol

Hey Miss T!!! I am so happy that I saw your post. On Monday I made a decision to "go back to the basics" on Sept 1st, tomorrow, so that I can get back on track. The past couple of months have been very stressful and I lost touch with my journey. I have not gained any but I have been stuck at a 95lbs lost for a month or so! Many Blessings to you and please keep in touch and let me know how you are doing. WE WILL MAKE IT!!!!! Blessings ~Tonya

Hi Guys, I wanted to join in on the not moving scale. about 3-4 wks ago I was so excited that I lost like 3 lbs in a week! Well......I found them in Atlanta when we were visiting! I dont know how, I thought I was doing decent on my eating and I exercised 4 out of 10 days. Actually didnt think I was eating as much as normally. So here we are almost 2.5 wks later and they 3 lbs still wont leave me alone!!!! For the whole month I only lost 3 lbs and have normally been about 5-7 lbs avg. the past few month. I think I will be joining you on the plateau buster diet. Mostly because my addiction for carbs is getting out of control! I told myself that when we got back home that I would not eat carbs anymore just get back to basics. Its hard. I know the best thing to do would be throw out all the carbs in the house again. But how fair is that to my 4 yr old and is that just my excuse? Sooo on the positive note This week I pushed my self even harder and I ran 4 miles on mon and Wed.(this morn). Its an awsome feeling. I am amazed that my body can go that far and not just fall out on the floor! Not really complaining just wanted to let you all know that you are not alone! Leann 235/139.5-142/125 goal

I'm right there with you on the plateau. I have been waivering up and down within 4 lbs and I need to get things moving again. I am starting the plateau buster tomorrow (just printed it out) and I'm hoping it helps. I also am changing up my exercise...make sure you check your heart rate to see if you are working hard enough. It is so frustrating to hear people tell me I am melting away (gosh that sounds really ungrateful) but I know I'm not...I'm stuck as stuck can be. Good luck! Christine
