Hello everyone!

It's been a while since I've posted....and I think I have hit this wall
called a "plateau". During the entire month of April I was yo-yoing the
same weight over and over. Finally in May, it started to fall off, little
by little. I was so excited! Well, Memorial Day weekend, my DH and I went
on cruise and I thought I had gained 5 lbs. I did not count points, but I
did not pig out either. I did eat well and ate things I normally wouldn't
at home and drank a few yummy concoctions! : ) Anyway, got back and went
to WW last week and I had gained 2 pounds. Not bad, considering. Well, I
did really well this past week. Did my exercises (not as much I was doing 3
months ago, but at least 3-4 times a week) and sticking to OP (for the most
part, but had a bad day on Monday) - other than that, did pretty well and
was pleased that I was getting into good habits again. Well, I knew that
the little scale didn't go down cuz I weigh at home (have a great WW scale,
btw). I gained a half of a pound. Ugh. I know - this happens. Well, I
asked my leader what she suggested about a plateau and she gave me some good
info. One was a meal plan for getting back on track (kinda like fast track
where you only eat 20 points a day). UGH! I eat 28 currently. I did Fast
Track in Jan and I did lose, but I've lost without starving myself also. I
was starving doing the 20 points. Any suggestions on how to get out of the
rut? I thought about increasing activity gradually more and more since
we're in the summer months and it would be easier. I try not to beat myself
up over the numbers and look ahead. That's the hardest thing to do. My DH
and I are also planning on starting a family at the end of the year. He has
been so supportive and I told him that I wanted to join WW first and see
where I am in a year. BTW - any moms or moms to be or moms in the planning
out there? I know I'm not gonna weigh 130 by the time I get pregnant, but I
do want to get to onederland and then some and be healthy. I know I can.
It's not that far off, I just have to give it my best shot. Anyway, I've
been OP since December and have lost 22 pounds. I just need a push to get
me over that hump cuz I've been floating around the same numbers for too
long. It's time for me to get over it. I know it doesn't happen overnight.
I am dedicated. I have never missed a meeting. I am human though and do
slip up and overeat from time to time. I know that's life, but maybe it's
causing me to stumble. I don't know. Any advice out there?

Thanks guys!
