Off of the plateau!!! I busted 216 this morning at 215.5. It took 12 days to get past this plateau. I was also able to pick up my pace during my walk this morning.

Lesson learned: Last night at church, we studied about how commitment is a very necessary part of a disciple's relationship with his rabbi. Jesus' disciples, or talmid, were passionate about being like Jesus. They were passionate to the point of death. Now, how does that relate to weight loss. We all have a rabbi when it comes to weight loss. That rabbi is our desire to be slimmer and lighter than where we are. We have to be passionate about our weight loss. We can't take it half-heartedly. It's a mission and we will not fail.
