Self induced plateau??

I’ve got no answers but do have to wonder at what goes on in my mind at times. I’m starting to realise that the only person to blame for the long term plateau was me! I do know weight loss can plateau – but come on Anne not for almost two years!! When I did reach a plateau (which at that stage was a probably a genuine one) I found an article in a book about the medication I am on. I took this along to my doctors and she looked into it and then confirmed – yes it does cause weight gain. So of I go and without really even realisng it, I was thinking that I would not be able to break the plateau, I wouldn’t reach goal.... If you’ve been reading my entries then you will know I did try – but there must have been this mental block that I wasn’t even aware of that was stopping me. I would try and try but it wasn’t consistent, a few good days, sometimes a whole week – then I would slip again. I was still eating well but would give up too easily and go back to eating more than I needed. Tracking last week did pay of. I know sometimes I’m going to get hit with disappointing results when I weigh in and that was probably my downfall last time, letting those not so good weeks get to me and slipping back again and becoming complacent. I still know it’s going to be hard, if I keep putting the effort I did last week the results will happen!

Of to the pool. Have a great weekend!
