Very creative daughter you have. Does she enjoy doing all kinds of bead projects? On the NS site I had several pictures of my bead projects. Did you take a picture of your Mother's Day gift? If so I would love to see it.
Thx. I posted photo of her wire sculpture on my profile. I have an honorary daughter (26) living w us...she surprised me w a planter box w basil n spicey oregano. That motivated me to prep, plant, n mulch my flower bed...now w peppers n tomatoes! Pics on my profile too. Did more exercise this weekend than in the last year combined. Tired. But happy.0 -
I've been back on Nutrisystem for about three weeks and I've lost a total of 9 lbs. But....I've been STUCK at the same weight now for more than a week. What is going on? It's way too soon for me to be at a plateau already. This is very frustrating.0

Hello Everyone here, I have been on NS since Jan 16 and lost 30.4#, for the last 6 weeks I lost 4.4 lbs total, and for 3 weeks the scale has only moved .4 lbs, so I am really frustrated but have been OP but I see that it will take me waayyy longer than I thought...I thought I would join this group as well

Lisa and Sonia-try switching to different power fuels, for example if you are eating dairy as your power fuels, try
turkey,tuna, or chicken. You can also try switching dinner and lunch. I tend to lose if I eat turkey as my power fuel and stay away from any form of bread. Everyone is different so what works for one may not work for another.
You have both done amazing. Even if there is no loss you could still be losing inches.0 -
Good morning.
I checked this morning, NS is still out there, you can edit, but can't make a new post. I'm done. I like our new home.
Have a skinny day, everyone.0 -

Hi Lisa & Sonia
One other thought. Call the Counselors and make Sure You are on the right plan. Hopefully this link will keep working for You. I hit a Plateau from not eating enough foods in the past so worth calling to be sure.

One or two other Thoughts:
I found a couple of cans of Canned Chicken that should work as a PowerFuel. They are:
Valley Fresh 100% Natural Chicken Breast 90 calories per 5oz. can and
Swanson White Premium Chunk Chicken Breast also at 90 calories per 4.5oz. can.
Read the label carefully, Most of the canned Chicken is much higher. I also like the CostCo Kirkland Canned Chicken & Canned Turkey for use as multiple PowerFuel servings.
Next thought. Look for low sodium Lunch meats and even then research the nutrition on the makers website.
Regular Lunch meat can be high in sodium for taste.
Buy water pack Tuna not Oil Pack.
If You look for a bread, The Weight Watchers Whole Wheat & the Rye breads are around 90 calories for two slices.
Yes String Cheese is a PowerFuel, Just not the Best.
I use a Lot of the Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt @ 80 calories a container and mighty tasty too.
A Hard Boiled Egg makes a nice PowerFuel.

Hi Jo
Good Advice!
This is a Post I did on the NS Forum regarding how I reverse meals, hopefully it will stay available long enough.

Roger-I will have to try reversing meals and see how it works for me. I think eating lighter in the evening might do the trick. I am most active in the morning and should burn off a larger meal.

That's interesting Roger, reversing the whole day. I'd probably like that.0

Hi There was something else I ran across but have not tried yet.
That is http://www.beachbody.com/beachbodyblog/weight-loss/how-zigzag-dieting-can-break-your-weight-loss-plateau
The idea is to eat the same a couple of days, more a couple of days and less a couple of days and have the 7 day total equal what eating the proper amount of calories is.
I have a better link on the other computer if interested.
Good Luck
