I've been a little reserved over the whole dreaded "3 week stall" and so I am trying to encourage myself. This is what occurred to me:

1) I haven't weighed in 3 days (YAY for me) Does that count as a NSV or is it an anti-NSV? lol

2) I have successfully gotten ALL my Protein in since the day I started Protein drinks and am now able to do it with only 1 Protein shake per day

They aint fancy, but I'll take 'em!

Hey,, take what you can get> The only time since NOV I have not weighed myself is when I am on vacation! YES that kills me on vacation:) However I stopped sweating the stalls. They happen and they suck, but rather than killing myself with exercise to break it now I am like hey look how much you have lost, if it never moves again oh well. Now it seems I was just stuck at 165 for 6 weeks and today without much effort ( long story broken foot) I weighed in at 153!!!!!! I do believe that we through ourselves in stalls by exercising way more than the calories we are taking in!

The important message here is stalls will happen,,, I have had more than I have lost (or so it seems) but there is NO way to fail the sleeve unless you are doing Mc D milk shakes and sweet tea all day!

Breath in, breath out, move on.The time is always now. Don't sweat the small stuff and do happy dances when the good things show!

That's a good word Myrori! Thank you very much!! Intersting thought on the exercise...I've actually stopped the treadmill and just tried to move more in the day BECAUSE of the supposed calorie deficit. I was thinking along the same lines as you...that my poor body is in shock enough, be kind and give it a couple days off. We'll see, I haven't been on the treadmill in the same amount of days I haven't weighed. lol
