If I had known...

If I had known all it would take to break the plateau was to stop exercising, I would have done it weeks ago!  As of this morning, I am almost 4 pounds down in a week.  I came down with a cold/sinus infection last week.  The nurse practitioner said to take it easy on the exercising until I am better.  So, no exercise Tuesday through today (Sunday).  This morning I am exactly 239 pounds!  That is 3.8 pounds in seven days.  I cannot contribute it to less eating.  The cold has definitely NOT stopped the appetite.  I guess my body just needed another reset.  I will get back to physical fitness starting tomorrow morning with the elliptical. 

Here are a few update pictures.
