PANIC BUTTON
I think I hit a plateau!
Everyone faces a week or two of maintaining occasionally, but if you really have hit a weight plateau, you might need to make some changes to continue losing. A plateau is defined as three weeks of following the plan with no weight loss. Try the Simply Filling technique, the changing up how you use your Weekly Points Allowance, some new foods, a new exercise plan, etc. Make sure you continue any changes for four weeks or more to see if they're really making a difference. WW recently put out a good article on plateaus.
ARTICLES OF NOTE
It's easy to become overwhelmed at the amount of weight we want to lose, the many different habits we have to change, or exercising. This week, we will discuss how we can use the Storyboarding Tool for Living to accomplish big things by breaking them down into small manageable goals. We will be using this tool to help make regular activity and other healthy behaviors a priority.
I'll see you at your meeting - have a great week!

Apricot Upside-Down Cakes
Makes 6 servings
POINTS value per serving: 4
6 Tbsp sugar
1 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp apple pie spice
◊1 (16-ounce) can apricot halves in juice, drained
6 refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (from a 7 1/2-ounce can)
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spray a 6-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray.
2. Combine 5 tablespoons of the sugar, the lemon juice, and pie spice and in a small bowl. Spoon the sugar mixture evenly into the cups. Place 3 overlapping apricot halves, cut side up, in each cup. Then add 1 biscuit to each cup, gently pressing it along the side of the cup to adhere. Sprinkle each biscuit with 1/2 teaspoon of the remaining sugar.
3. Bake until the apricot mixture is bubbly and the biscuits are golden brown, about 12 minutes. Let the cakes stand in the pan 5 minutes. Invert the cakes on a large plate and serve warm.
