Weight Loss Plateau After 6 Months

Well today is February 10th and it has been two weeks since I had my last dr.s appointment and fill and have been at a plateau. Today I got on the scales and have finally started to see them move again. I was at 175 at my last appointment by their scales which weighs 1 pound less then mine. If I were to weigh on their scales I would weigh 173 today. I am anxious to get into the 160 range. I am now able to wear size 14 pants.

I ordered the Lee jeans with the elastic at the sides style that I like off of e-bay and got a brand new pair from a gal in Washington for 9.00 plus shipping so for about 15.00 a new pair!! At the out let it would cost 20.00 and I won't be getting to the out let in Boise until the end of March so that was a good deal. I also ordered a used pair that just arrived in great condition, I have to hem up for 13.00 including shippping.

I have been fast walking on my treadmill for 40 minutes for 2 miles 3-4 times a week. It was tempting to eat what I wanted while on the plateau, since I wasn't seeing any results, but read where this is bound to happen and to just keep on doing as I have been and the weight loss will continue again. So that is my plan. We went out to a Thai place to eat last night and I had a salad that was good and I ate about half of it and brought the rest home. It had a watery type dressing on it so it probably will be kind of soggy today. Well I have a new book to read so I am going to put my walking feet up and take a break to read a bit for today!!
