good evening - I knew it was just a matter of time before I would have my turn at a plateau. This is the first week that I have not lost and am VERY thankful for the same 181.6# as last week. Just a few words of encouragement would be appreciated. I do focus on how far I have come in the past 11 weeks - down 18#.

thanks for your support:flowerforyou:

    Wow! You are doing awesome:)

    For me, I call a plateau months of staying the same. Even then, it's not a plateau, it's practicing maintenance.

    One week is not a plateau. Look at how far you have come. Just keep doing what you're doing. You'll see a loss next week.

    18 lbs in 11 weeks is fantastic, hon! Stay focused, you can do this. You body is just taking a little break from weight loss (this is what I call those "plateaus") and it will keep going.
