My Definition of a Plateau

My definition of a PLATEAU:
A relationship that you know is not working - you come to your senses and tell the person - "Hey it's over, you have got to go" The person looks confussed and tries to stick around - stating that they will change. But you, on the other hand is the one that changed. You do the drastic - change your number, change the locks on the door, change your email address, shut down your FB. Mr. or Miss PLATEAU knows that you are serious - packs up and leave! If you find yourself at a PLATEAU - you will have to do something drastic in order for the UNWANTED pounds and inches to leave! You may have to change your eating - may have to add a little more to the excercise - may have to get more rest....whatever it is - if you do the drastic PLATEAU will pick up and leave!

    YES YES YES!!! That's what people don't understand! When you get to a plateau, you have to change up. Not slightly, but really shock the body to let it know you’re not playing. Good analogy, thanks for posting!

    Nice pst! A lot of people think a plateau is not losing weight for a week or 2. But I do agree that you have to go into crisis mode to get things moving again.

    Sorta like the definition of Insanity....doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Great post.
