While 40 Has Been Sporty...

50 is Way More Nifty!

Great way to celebrate my 2 month anniversary.

For all of you that are stuck on plateaus...<img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/23/23_10_1.gif' border=0>.

Looking back over my tracking program, I had several plateaus between weeks 3 and 5 and was becoming very dispirited (sp?) <img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_9_9.gif' border=0>

In the first week my weight loss was so dramatic...(14 pounds!) that I thought the program would be a snap and I'd be at goal in just a few months. :roflmao:

Then in week 3 it came to a grinding halt and I averaged a little over a pound with big spikes up and down. I was looking for an excuse to quit and the good folks here helped talk me through it. :3head: :hugblue: :stickwack: :hug:

Listen to what the veterans on this board have to say. Stick to the program and it will work for you and be sure to look for the "little non-scale victories" to tide you over when the scale seems stuck.

Thanks again to everyone on this board for helping me continue to be the big loser I always knew I could be. <img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_1_12.gif' border=0>
