TGIF! I am so looking forward to the weekend and getting outside! We are having some glorious weather here in sunny Florida- so getting close to putting on that swimsuit. I have not been recording any consistent weight loss although I continue to do what has worked for me so far. I am dropping sizes and now down from a snug 18 to a "loose" 12. I also took the advice of a FS buddy and purchased the Omron fat loss monitor a few months back. This handheld device shows % fat and BMI...helpful when the scale is not. I am now thrilled to see I fall within the normal range for BMI at 24.7 (OK HIGH normal but still normal..) and normal body fat for my age range. My weight loss has come to a standstill so my plan of attack is to add more cardio in different and new ways. I had already added in weight training which has given phenomenal results in a very short time; however, I think my body has adjusted to the elliptical so I plan on swapping that out with the rowing machine, more biking and evening brisk walks. MINDFUL and sensible eating -even in the face of temptations-wont change but I can see my body has gotten comfortable at this weight. No one said this was easy! Good luck to all!

Sounds like a solid plan. You also might want to toy with alternating going up by 200 kcals a day for a couple days a week, then back down below your norm for a day or two. That has helped me in the past. How long have you been stuck at this weight? Must be frustrating, but you have a good attitude about it. Yay for your BMI! I have bothered to check mine (or rather, do the calculations, lol) but I plan to ask my doctor at my upcoming physical.

That was "I **haven't** bothered to check my BMI," lol.
