Hitting a Plateau Means Time to Sweat


Well, I was hoping for confetti and balloons to drop on me from the ceiling today because I was hoping to reach my goal at my weigh-in but actually I found out I hit a plateau. My net weight was only down 0.2 lbs but my water weight was up 1 pounds and my fat weight was down but overall it really means I did not change much again this week. Yancy, the Weightloss Specialist I met with today recommended more intense exercise and breaking a sweat. ARGHHH! Sweating is not my favorite thing to do. Being hot literally makes me nauseous and I have a little anxiety just at the thought of being warm because of my history of nausea with it., which is so crazy since I live in Florida where it is hot and humid 90% of the time (or at least it feels like it). If I want to look hot, I am going to have to endure getting hot and breaking a sweat. I will have to leave the dog at home and go for power walks. I also will go to the power yoga class on Saturday morning. Yoga is my most favorite form of exercise and doing certain repetitions of certain poses, you can get your heart rate up and break a sweat. I am hopeful to have the balloons and confetti next week.
