Plateau.....I think.....

Last week weigh in - 248.8 lbs. approx. I say approx. because I weighed and forgot what it was but I know it was't under 247 or over 250. LOL I am off the Herbalife wagon. As much as I love their stuff and as much as I know it works and is cheap. To actually plunk down at least $40 for the shake mix alone then to add more for supplements and such, when the shake mix will last me 2 weeks doing 2 shakes a week........It's just not possible right now. So what am I doing instead? Well by dumb luck the other day I stumbled onto the Smart Ones Weight Watchers meals - YUM! They are 6/$11 this week at Meijer so I stocked up the other night when I went and will get more Friday when I do the official shopping.

So plateau I say.......well i know what I need to do it's just actually doing it. Eat breakfast. When I eat breakfast I am less grouchy and I lose weight and sleep better. When I don't - I just don't. And truthfully it's not just eating breakfast but eating it within the frist 45 minutes of the morning after waking up that is the most important. That is when your body is setting your metabolism for the day. So to eat your breakfast in that window sets your body to burn more energy that day. And make you less likely to kill someone......Oh that's just me. Ok then never mind. ;)

Well it's time to set the DVR and then I think I am going to go curl up with my knitting or a good book (OMG Twilight is addicting but that's another day!) and try to get to bed early because I could use the sleep. Hugs~Jen


PS - New blog link to the left, it's my knitting blog which is more of my daily life stuff sometimes than is here. :)

It's great to meet another person who weighs more than 100 pounds that's trying to lose weight!
I just lost 20 pounds in a month and one week.
Be glad your plateauing! It's better to be stuck than to be gaining! :)

My best of wishes to your journey!! I hope you get that body you want soon! :O)
