You are tearing it up!! Keep moving, you will get off of your plateau soon - just don't give up! Here is a little Ms. Tracy "secret" - when I would hit a wall, I would eat a little more to confuse my body - sometimes the body gets used to the old routine, so I would shake it up! My favorite thing to do was (and still is!) to go to Long John Silvers or a good hamburger joint and (still using my points and some extra points) have a good fatty meal! Also, I would up my water intake! I would keep exercising and by the next week, my plateau would be over! Now, mind you, I would only have this meal once a week - do go out and eat up a bunch of hush puppies and blame me! ;) The key to weight loss success is perserverance and realizing that it aint all about twigs and berries, but balance. Let me know how that works for you if you try it! You can do it!! Thanks for commenting - glad to be your motivator!! Go Girl!! You are tearing it up!!

I just wanted to say you are really an inspiration. You and I have similar approaches to weight loss. I run, kickbox, and now I'm taking Zumba dance classes, but I also joined Weight Watchers. I have lost 15 lbs so far but I stopped tracking in May/June actively and have plateued seriously! I am back to tracking because I realize that even though I can work out vigorously, the scale might not budge downwards without careful monitoring of what I put in my mouth. It's hard! You make it sound so easy though. Please do keep up the good work. You are truly motivating! Hi, I have been reading your blog for a while now but never commented.
