Backtracking..............

[PrairieRose]

Well I've adjusted my ticker. I'd been at 80 lbs. lost for a good while and then we did a couple of trips where the food was ever present and bountiful and beautiful and delicious and, and, and....I simply ate too danged much, drank too danged much. SSoooooo here I am at 75 lbs. lost, 13 to goal. I have however lost 3 of the 7 I gained since we got home on Saturday night. Now I'm working on the last 13 again. I can see that this is definitely a portion control issue for me and I swear I'm gonna control them dern portions from now on....I just hate back tracking. I'm about to do some weight lifting and then go and walk 2 miles on the track. I may walk another mile in the evening for good measure. Lately I've been loving going for 'evening walk about' after dinner. Gripey and I have been doing that not so much for the 'workout' aspect of it as just to do something to move for a bit after we eat. Feels great.

The worst part is that I have my 30 yr. reunion in 10 days. I can't possibly make my goal but I can lose another 2-3 pounds before then. I could use your weightloss good thoughts and thingies....lol.

that's a bummer, I know, but don't beat yourself up about it....you have done way too good of a job, and lost way too much to get too bummed out. but it will be easier to recover a 5 pound gain than a 25 pound gain......so get back to it, and you'll be "back in the saddle" in no time!

Sending good thingies your way, Lisa. Just think of how far you have come - 75 lbs. is awesome. I know you will lose that weight you gained because you are determined!!

Good thoughts coming your way.

You've come so far, and I'm sure you'll lose the rest in no time!

Sending good vibes your way! You've come so far- a 75 pound loss is amazing! I know it's frustrating to see the scale move a little back in the wrong direction. Those last few stubborn pounds will come off sooner or later.
