Plateau no more .. For now!



Dear Diary,


The scale and I can finally be friends again. It has FINALLY given in and let me break the plateau I've been stuck on. Stop pointing your finger at me - I know I plateau'd because I'd have one good day followed by a bad day stuck on repeat. But I buckled down and, dear diary, you'd be proud of me. Cuz dammit, I sure am proud of me!!


I was tempted all week. Especially when I started seeing these commercials for a new mozza cheese called mozzarellissima. I won't lie - every single grocery store I graced with my presence had me ferociously going through the cheese section looking for this Godly cheese. I may have foamed at the mouth in anticipation of finding it. I could have killed a senior with the drool puddles I made on the floor. But it was a blessing in disguise that I wasn't able to find the cheese, because I broke my plateau. And that definitely would NOT have happened had I found that cheese!! 


Did I mention that I broke my plateau?! Stick that on repeat because I can't hear it enough!


I finally feel like I'm in the groove of things. I feel like I've braved the worst of the cheese / ice cream / pizza / anything-that-is-wonderfully-fatty-and-comes-in-brightly-colored-packages withdrawal and am able to focus on the prize - my 100-pound goal. 


I feel like the cravings and munchies are more in my control now, I don't let them boss me around. And the hubs and I have been trying to mix up our meals a little so that we don't get stuck in a rut and get bored of eating the same things .. Variety really is the spice of life!


I've learned from my past foodie mistakes. I know I'm not a perfect "lifestyle changer" and I'll slip in the future .. but until that day comes, I'm giving it my all.


And now I must make a confession. I have to bake cupcakes tomorrow. 


Yeah. I'll let you know how that turns out.


Till next time,
Me


PS. I won't rest till I find that cheese.
