Dreading The Plateau

Ok, I'll admit, I haven't been following the plan exactly. Things are changing diet and exercise plan wise and my face isn't quite keeping up with it like it should be, thus I'm getting a little bit discouraged by the result on Scaley Mc Scalerson!

Todays weighin - Target post christmas was:

12 Stone 12.25 pounds

180.25lbs

Which, when looked at logically, is pretty good for what I was aiming for - I wanted to maintain 180lbs - but, I have been "behaving" myself for the entire month of January to no result. I think we can officially call this a plateau now.

Anyway, I'm not going to let it get me down, as I've been rejigging the program and I am now in a "lose half a pound a week" category, so it's going to take a lot of time.

The new plan is to eat a heck of a lot more food! Which is nice :)

I've redone my calculations and I have 1750 (approx) calories to eat in a day, as well as any calories that I claw back from dragging my ass around a swimming pool in a day.

I also have to calm down with my weighins I think. It's just not going to move as quickly as it used to. I may have to go to fortnightly or monthly weighins to make sure that I don't get depressed.

Last night I was so annoyed with myself that I just ate everything in the house!! I mean really, I ate (not unhealthily) a lot of food! about 1000 calories more than I should have!

Anyway. I'll think about what target I am going to set this month and put it on twitter by the end of the week.

New challenges required I think! Something physical as opposed to a scale target.
