    Plateau's are tough, aren't they? But, I've noticed every time I lose weight it's always in a stair step pattern, so I try not to stress about the plateau's (easier said then done sometimes, I know). Plateau's also give me a chance to reevaluate what I'm doing. Have I become lax in certain things? The bottom line is, as long as I'm eating at a deficit, getting enough sleep, and trying to move my body some each day that it will eventually drop again. I'm in a plateau this month, but it's medication related. I'll be done with the meds the beginning of April so hopefully that will also mean no more plateau. :smile:
    I hope you break through it soon!

    Hi Everyone,

    I was called into work earlier today and had to return home due to not feeling well. I just got home and I'm going to go have a sleep in hopes it does me well.

    In the event I don't get the weekly stats posted later this evening I will do it tomorrow morning. In the meantime, if you go into the spreadsheet you will at least see the winning teams.

    Sorry :neutral:

    Hi Team.
    Well, I have to apologize. I had a horrible weigh in. In fact this whole month has been a waste with regard to my weight loss. I have leukemia and I started back on my 3rd of 4 month-long daily chemo sessions this month and the meds make it very hard to lose weight and exercise. The month of May will be better for me, but I've decided not to do this challenge again because I don't want to let my team down. I'll be all done with chemo July 1st and if this monthly challenge is still going on, I'll be back then.
    I hope the rest of you are doing well and finishing the last week with a bang!

    Thanks so much, ladies! I'm in remission and am told I have an excellent prognosis for beating this. I just need to finish the chemo and then I'll feel like I have my life back. :smile: My health is a big reason I'm wanting to eat well and get my weight down to a "normal" BMI instead of "overweight". I figure it will help my body to fight. Good luck with your weight loss goals! I have no doubt you'll be super successful! x x x
