Plateaus

I've reached a couple of plateaus this week.  First, I'm at that stage when you have time off from work and you don't remember what day of the week it is at the moment. Since I don't have to count down to my next day off, it's easy not to know one day from another.  Forget about knowing the date; unless I have an appointment coming up, days of the month don't matter, either.
The other plateau has me baffled and a little disappointed. I haven't lost any more weight.  I'm fluctuating between having lost 20 lbs to gaining back 1 or 2 lbs!  
Ever since I started eating soft foods, my weight loss had diminished.  Maybe I'm eating too much now. I may go back to the protein shake regime for a little while and amp up my walking, too.
Yesterday, I took the Pugs for a walk along the beach again.  This time I walked even further, but I think I over-exercised my dogs.  Butter was falling behind on the walk.  When we got home, after mass quantities of water, he took to the kitchen floor and laid there, panting and drooling for a little while.  He would get up and hobble a little bit (same thing I do when I get up from the recliner) before he could walk with ease.
I'm going to go for a long walk today, too, but without the dogs. Hopefully that will kick start my weight loss again.


Remember, I said I had a fear: what if I don't lose any weight?
