Well folks, as I said in my last post, I set out earlier this week to find a way to bust through my weight loss plateu. I found an accidental solution.
The flu.
I’ve been fighting it since Tuesday night during band practice. I’ve had absolutely no appetite for the past five days. I’ve also lost about 5 pounds.
Sure, it’s not the safest way to drop weight. I also know that it will be back as soon as my hunger returns, but for the time being, I’m hovering at just above 200 pounds—200.8 to be exact.
But, seeing the scale at its lowest point in years has given me so much motivation. Even if this loss does prove to be temporary, at least I’m seeing the possibility.
I should be well after the weekend. Come Monday, I’ll pick up the slack and get out there again. Maybe I should turn to weight training. Or switch from jogging to running. We’ll see.
Have a great holiday! AND LAY OFF THE PEEPS!
