Good news on my plateau

I didn't lose any weight for 3 weeks. Weight loss stopped after about 4 weeks and I just hung out there in limbo. I was getting depressed. Went into the doctors office and cried my eyes out. I felt such a failure...well, you all know the feeling I'm sure. So, I followed advice and did not weigh myself for the last 2 weeks and somewhere along the line I lost 4 pounds. YEAYYYYYYYYY

So, if any of you out there are on a plateau just remember the weight has to go. You aren't eating much and you are moving.....   Just stay off the scales and only weigh yourself once a week or maybe every other week.

Love you all and have a Happy New Year!

I hear you Naomi, worked for me last week too.  Avoiding the scale that is.   Also changed up the exercise a little.  Congrats on jumping off the plateau.

Congrats on breaking that plateau!!! NOW...do yourself a big favor...know that you will hit more of them, and don't let it tear you up when it happens. I hit them all throughout my wls journey. Just part of the ride! You will break through them. Just assess what you are doing when it happens, and if you are doing all you should be..just know it will be okay!
Hugs!
