2 days with no change
Well, I've been absolutely perfect with the diet and I've spent two whole days at the same weight. I knew that it would be expected, I just didn't know it would come so soon. It's truly a bummer and it immediately gives me mental excuses to cheat. Resisting those temptations is harder than resisting the food itself. Talk about self-sabotage!!!!! I haven't given in, but I hope that I lose something by tomorrow because I have to see change in order to continue to be encouraged.

Hey Lissette You may want to think about doing an "Apple Day" if you really think you're into a plateau. It really does help. Here's all about it from "Pounds and Inches":
In such cases we consider it permissible, for purely psychological reasons, to break up the plateau. This can be done in two ways. One is a so-called “apple day”. An apple-day begins at lunch and continues until just before lunch of the following day. The patients are given six large apples and are told to eat one whenever they feel the desire though six apples is the maximum allowed. During an apple-day no other food or liquids except plain water are allowed and of water they may only drink just enough to quench an uncomfortable thirst if eating an apple still leaves them thirsty. Most patients feel no need for water and are quite happy with their six apples. Needless to say, an apple-day may never be given on the day on which there is no injection. The apple-day produces a gratifying loss of weight on the following day, chiefly due to the elimination of water. This water is not regained when the patients resume their normal 500-Calorie diet at lunch, and on the following days they continue to lose weight satisfactorily.
Susan,
Thanks for your support!
