Need opinons on WI

Here's is the deal...
I am not happy once again with my sneak preview on the scale.
What I would like to do is skip this WI and start with the Wendie plan today to kick my plateau to the curb.
I never believed in plateau, I thought it was a nice excuse for not giving it your all. Now I think I am experiencing one, I believe in them.
I did really well again this week. I did not eat all my flex points, the only thing I did wrong was not work out more. I only went one day this week.

I know missing WI is so controversial but I think I need a break and start fresh.
What do you guys think??
Plan B I could go face the music and still start fresh, I am just afraid of being so discouraged that I won't give a darn this week.
I know I might not have shown big numbers in the BLBE challenge, but it did something more for me. I joined a gym because of it. I wanted to take it up a notch and seeing all the challengers kick some butt in fitness. I decided I can do this too.
I know I lost major inches as well, but I don't care about that stuff I just want the stupid scale to show a nicer number.

So I am asking my best blog buddies what would you do???
Plan A : skip WI, start fresh today with a plateau busting plan and go to the gym more often.
Plan B: go to WI, and try not to get discouraged. Keep doing what you are doing for one more week. Adding alot more exercise.

I think you should still WI but change things up...so how about a combination of A & B. Face the digital devil so at least you know where you stand and then start with your plateau busting plan.

I despise plateaus but if you stick with it you will get past it!!

Good luck with whatever you decide!

I don't think skipping a weigh in is a good idea under any conditions. For me, no good has ever come of it. Often we want to skip because we don't want to face the music. Sometimes, our minds think things are worse than they are, and we've skipped a weigh in that could have kept us going.

Good luck breaking your plateau.

i am offering you Plan C

Go to weigh in. Bring in your food tracker. Stay after the meeting and talk to the leader and let her know your frustrations etc...She may have some insight for you or may just give you the hug of encouragement it sounds like you need.

trust me babe..i was there for 6-8 weeks. 211, 210, 211.2, 209, 210..oy!! I reached 208 last week and am TERRIFIED to go in and see 210 again

Go in, and get that fresh start feeling you should always get from the meetings..but this time, stay for an extra boost :)
