Plateau seems to be broken...

Hi guys, I had been at a stall with my weight loss for about 10 days...I waited it out not so patiently, but this week it seems to have broke itself and I've lost 4.2 pounds in 5 days...thank goodness...I was sure I was doing something wrong, but couldn't imagine what. I read over and over to expect it, but when it is happening, especially for the first time, it is difficult. I've lost a total of 48 pounds now (including the liquids b4 surgery)...I'm happy with that....my one and only little wow moment is getting into a size smaller pants that I haven't worn in a year and a half...but I feel much, much better now!

Hi Misty, That's great...I know those plateau's suck. I cried at my first one... Just wait until you realize that you have to go out and buy new pant's, now that's cool......Once my foot gets better, I want to do a Jazzersize class too. That sounds like so much fun....Keep up the good work, you're doing great..... Sandi

Woo hoo! Its hard being patient Our bodies sometimes need some time to catch up! I am pre-op but have been trying to lose weight before surgery.... Ive been on a plateau for over 3 weeks now! Its driving me insane!!!!!! I keep hope alive thou and keep working out and watching what I eat because at least the scale isnt going up! I know its hard not to be a slave to the scale... if it gets stuck again remember how you feel! Put on those jeans that use too be tooooo tight that now wont stay up! My friend who had the surgery 4 years ago kept one pair of her largest jeans and one of her largest tops. Any time shes feeling down she pulls those out and marvels at how now 3 of her can fit in them!

Thanks so much for the kind words of wisdom...it was a tough time, but I'm back on track now (mentally). Sandi you're picture is beautiful! Have a great time on your date...he's a very lucky guy!
