Thread: Need to shake things up...

oops I meant earned weekly lol

I am losing momentum and with so far to go that is a bad thing. I am getting bored with my foods and all that. I have been doing the simply filling plan and have decided that for the next few weeks I am changing over to counting points and trying some new recipes out of the comfort classic cookbook. Maybe that will get me moving in the right direction again (I haven't gained anything but the scale hasn't been moving the way I would...

Good plan. I mostly follow Simply Filling too but once in a while, I switch to counting points for a week or two. It keeps things interesting, makes me focus more because I'm doing something different, lets me mix up the menu a bit more, and seems to work to get motivation back. Speaking of that, I need to pick a plan and follow it...right now I'm not really doing either! Thanks for the reminder that I have to get focusesd myself!...

I think it is a great idea to try new things every week. Sometimes we get stuck in a rut of eating the same breakfast every day, the same rotation of dinners etc. To me that is a road to wanting 'something different' that might not be the best choice. I try between two and four new recipes a week. I don't eat the same thing more than twice a week. It does help and I stay excited about my meals rather than ..oh no this again?
