    I’m really excited about this group and that an invitation was extended my way (thanks again Kandy Jo! You’re awesome!) when I was feeling so discouraged and alone. I look forward to getting to know you all!

    Thanks for reading!
    Kisha
    I'm so happy you decided to join us! I was sad to read last week that you felt the website wasn't a positive experiance for you, good luck (not that you need it you've already started losing!)

    :ohwell: I have been gone for awhile, out on vacation since June 26th and am just now getting back to MFP. But I am part of the June Starters so I thought I would come here first and weigh in

    Okay weighing in:

    SW: 164
    LW: back down to 160 after being up
    CW: 161 up a pound but I don't care at all because last Sunday I completed my first half marathon! Ran the whole thing in 2.5 hours and didn't stop once! :drinker: From Napa to Sonoma! YAY!
    GW: 144

    I really want to get past the 60s and into the 50s....anyone find a way to break through a plateau?

    JohnnysGirl34...you need to keep taking good care of yourself. Hope you're feeling better soon. :flowerforyou:

    I'm at 201 today. No change. I need to get back to logging my food. It's sort of funny, because I can spend time reading MFP threads, but I "forget" to enter my food! Better recommit to that food diary.
    It's great to read about the success so many in the group are having! :smile:

    I don't log my food on here either...it takes too long for me...I log it in my blackberry calorie counter...but before I had the blackberry...I just wrote it down. Its too hard for me to sit down at the computer all the time...with two kids and going to school...but definetly log somewhere...:wink:

    I've learned the best way to push through that plateau is by altering your caloric intake. If you're used to taking in 1200...take a day and take in 1500. Never go above 1800, but alter your caloric intake. Also...add weight training if you haven't yet. Building fat burning muscle will speed up your weight loss!!

    Well, here I am weighing in a day late...sorry :wink:
    BUT... I didn't have a loss....

    SW 230
    LW220

    Its my TOM so maybe that is having something to do with it.... hopefully in a few days I will have a loss....

    Since I have been sick I have not been charting my food but will start tomorrow.
    on the Curves program you eat 1,250 for 1 week and then have 1,500 for 3 weeks and then 1,800 for a few days. you will lose the first week and then the idea is to maintain and boost your metabolism and if your weight goes up more than 2 pounds you go back to week 1. there is a little more to it than that but this is the idea! You can check it out on the internet! You don't have to go to Curves to use the idea! But this is agreeing with the idea of breaking a plateau by increasing your calories!:flowerforyou:
