3 week stall ideas?
| Sun, 09-04-2005 - 10:38pm |
I've read some great stuff here about plateaus and stalls. (I loved seeing that you broke free waverider!). So I havent been panicking...but it does get discouraging. Here's my deal. I started SB on June 15. (167/150/142) I'm 5'9 med to large build and have been running about 5 days per week throughout summer. I run about 30 min and do light weights 3 times per week. However, I'm a mom of two and a full time teacher who went back to school coinciding with the stall.
So I can say of course I'm stalled my wonderful summer is over and I'm probably traumatized :). My question is if my exercise routine has slowed, (but activity level is up), sleep is reduced, stress is way higher, but diet remains the same...do you think I'll start losing again at some point? Or did I screw myself up by placing myself in a workout routine I can't realistically maintain while I'm working. I have been squeezing in 3-4 runs per week, but that has been a big challenge and Im not sure it will keep happening with the daylight hours dwindling.
I havent posted a menu but I think I'm doing ok since it's been working thus far. I've got my dairy,2-3 grains and 2 fruits...water may be too low. It's really hard to pump the H2O when my class periods are 90 minutes and I cant run out for potty breaks.
Thanks for any input!
