Well, after a trip to St. Louis for the weekend I ended up gaining 3lbs!! The trip was over the July 4th weekend, and I delayed weighing in because I thought when I returned and got back in the groove it would come off. It's not!!!
I'm not gaining or losing which makes me think I've hit the dreaded plateau. Tomorrow is my last day in Phase III and since I'm exactly 10lbs from my goal I'm going back into Phase I. It's very discouraging to have a slight weight gain and then plateau.
Don't get me wrong, I may be discouraged, but I am happy. I'm now in my healthy weight range, BMI, and I'm at the weight I was when I graduated high school. BUT, I want to lose 10 more. Then I'll be at my goal.
PLAN: Friday I'll start back with Phase I while keeping my exercise at 45 minutes/1 hour.
Any other ideas to getting out of this plateau I'd welcome!!! I've tried calorie increase and that didn't work. Going back to phase I with the increase in exercise is all I can think of!
