Broke through!

That's it! I finally broke through a plateau I was stuck in since Christmas! Been up and down the same 3 pounds, then got a ravenous appetite for a couple of days, cut back on my hour cardio workout and only did 30 minutes, but it was enough to lose 1.5 lbs and break through! Yippee!! My doctor suspected I wasn't eating enough to match my workouts, so I caved and ate some more calories, increased water by one water bottle and increased protein and calories. It worked! Dang never would have thought that would do it. So I am going into a new 10 pound increment on the scale. Haven't been here in years! What doesn't help is two pairs of pants that I had just wiggled my way into shrunk big time in the wash by like 2 sizes. I could barely zip them, so it messed with my brain and told me I was gaining inches! Same thing happened to my 11 year old son. I had to grab him some clothes for boy scouts and he tried to put on his jeans and they were shorter and he couldn't even button them. Poor fellow, he cried that he had to wear the red shorts that he had on. So I know it just wasn't me. I just need to pull my dryer out and clean the lint out of the back. Now any advice on how to do that? This port thing has me scared that it might pop out if I put too much weight on my stomach moving it:blink:!
