THE DREADED PLATEAU!!!


“In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life. It goes on.” ~Robert Frost


 
Me....bottom row left...funky glasses, hair in pig tails with flowered flip flops



I've been the same weight for 3 weeks now and life still goes on.  The dreaded plateau has I come to pass.  I have JUST 3 choices.  No long list of decisions to make. Should be simple.

  1. Give up and gain it all back
  2. Quit, be content with my weight and maintain
  3. Work harder and survive the slight hiccup in my life.

Obstacles don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.” ~Michael Jordan

 
UMMM.....I'll choose number "3" please for 36 more pounds!!
 
 
I decide to go through it!!  I can't go around it or climb over this obstacle.  This is something I have to go through.  I CAN and WILL succeed! Looking forward and visualizing my future will help me make my way through this stubborn plateau.  I can see a slimmer, healthier me on the other side of the wall. 
 
 
My strategy will consist of these goals.
  • When preparing meals, begin with vegetables then add small portions of carbs and proteins.
  • Walk 10,000 or more steps a day
  • Drink ALL of my "74.4 oz H2O on the Go" bottle.
  • Increase my exercise
  • THINK POSITIVE and KEEP MOVING
