Guest guest Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 I am going to have to disagree with something you are writing. A true plateau during weight loss can last about a month. Beyond one month and it is not a plateau, we aren't doing what we are supposed to be doing. A plateau is when we are doing everything right and the scale doesn't move. After six months it's not a plateau. ;o) I know stress is hard to deal with, no doubts there. But you know what? We are going to deal with stress the rest of our lives. WLS means an attitude change and over hauling your eating behaviors. Stress is horrible but it's not an excuse to eat. This is where we learn the skills to deal with stress away from food. There are simply more appropriate ways to deal with stress. Food does not need to be one of them. If we depend on food to deal with stress we are not really doing what we are supposed to be doing. We are still resorting to the " fat mentality " and that isn't serving a purpose, it's just giving us justification in our own minds to eat. Yes, quite frankly you CAN lose the other 30#. You've done it before you can do it again. The more you convince yourself that you can't do it the more you will believe it. I'm going to start a new thread with a post i wrote on a board a long time ago regarding motivation. I'm too lazy to retype it. HA!
