in need of motivation

misssmiles

Hello everyone!!

I have lost 25ish pounds since november. I feel that i am experiencing a plateau... i even had a weight gain of 1lb this week (a first since the start of my journey). I was wondering if anyone had words of wisdom, ideas, or motivations to get me over this hump. Thanks bunches!!

Have you been doing similar workouts since you started? Your body gets amazingly efficient if you repeat the same schedule for a while. Throw in something really different (cycling -> boxing) and you'll feel the burn for sure.

Change it up.. whether you push yourself harder or do something completely different. I experienced one 2 weeks ago...I ended up cutting out a lot of fat and have lost 3lbs since then...I'm already pushing myself as hard as I can right now doing the 30 Day Shred. Good luck!

What I've been doing lately is looking at the before and after pics in the Success Stories forum. While I really want that kind of success, seeing the proof and knowing they didn't use pills, etc (as far as they're admitting lol :laugh: ) and with will power and dedication, I am aware that it is totally possible. You can do this! Look at those pics, especially pics of your progress and you will overcome any plateau you encounter! :flowerforyou:
