Plateau *scowl*

Wow!  So much for my every two week post, eh?  Suddenly it's been a month.  for a quick check-in, it's been ok.  Consistently losing about 2-2.5 lbs. a week, slowly getting more food options back, and I've lost a total of 83lbs since starting this journey last October.  however, now I've hit a plateau.  I've been the same weight for over a week now.  It's super frustrating.  They did say this would happen.  It usually happens to people sooner than this and when i was told to expect it, it didn't happen.  Guess i thought i was special.  Lol.  It's something to do with metabolic changes and bla bla bla, in other words, my 'system' is throwing a tantrum.  Shouldn't last much longer.....I hope.  I did just pass the time when i have weight restrictions for lifting, so I've brought out the weights and will start working with those again tomorrow.  E is going to join me too! :)  This has also been by suddenly sedentary week after several weeks of go go go and then this week, i think the most strenuous thing i did was help pack some boxed at a friends house.  If you've been through the plateau stage, did you do anything special to break it?  Or did you just wait it out?  Anyway, short one this time.  Here's a pick of the girl and I at camp two weeks ago.  I actually wore a shirt 2 sizes smaller than I have worn over the past several years and.....i didn't do the stretch-out before putting it on (IYKYK)!  and then a pic from the other day when I went from color to more professional hair again.
