Let me just tell you that last week sucked, I mean totally blew in every way. This week so far has turned out to be somewhat better.
I had a huge fight with my husband Tuesday night and it went on for several days. This sort of thing is incredibly rare for us and it completely zapped all my energy. We bicker a lot, that’s just how we are, always have been but we hardly ever have real fights. And in the middle of that negative stuff I weighed in last week and found that I’d gained 0.5. Ugh, talk about adding insult to injury.
I think I’m gonna be in the 160s forever. This week has been better. We talked about and resolved our fight. And I down 1.6 this week. Still in the 160s but at least it’s a loss. I’m not really sure what’s going on but I seem to have hit a pretty large plateau. Let’s just say I’m not a fan of the plateau. I’m not sure how but I think I need to change something up in order to break out of the stall.
I might try going back to the traditional plan rather than the Wendi Plan for a week or so and then switch back again. Maybe that will help. I can’t possibly exercise more than I already do. I simply don’t have the time. I wish that I could take up running but my tendency to get wicked painful shin splints has that right out. I may try and bump up the exercise to an hour and a half on Saturdays. Maybe that will help.
I have to start the search for a bathing suit soon which is a depressing task all in itself. I do have a glimmer of hope in that area though, believe it or not. I decided to go with Land’s End and their little computer thingie spit out a recommended size based on my measurements and it told me to buy a 12. A 12!
I haven’t worn a 12 in years. As my son would say “I HAPPY!”
