    finally broke through the wall

    after 3 weeks of being stuck at 196 and having stopped at that weight and quitting in the past, i took the advice from this board and moved to phase two. i stepped on the scale this morning and was stunned to see that im now at 186. only 26 lbs to go! thanks everyone!

    btw these are the changes i made

    more water and less tea
    eliminated splenda altogether
    added spinach, green beans and squash to my diet.
    reintroduced eggs and removed tofu

        Congratulations and what a reward for not quitting! I've made a mental note here and will remember this when I hit a stand still.
