Last year, I was THRILLED to move that nasty little tickmeter below my target weight of 130 pounds. But that was 32 pounds ago!
After my
physical body became fit, my emotional health hadn't caught up and hadn't accepted the "new" physique evolved from clean, healthy meals and exercise. My setpoint didn't budge beyond 5 pounds (+) (-) on the scales until a few months ago. I became overconfident and stopped weighing in. I consumed ridiculous amounts of sugar, fat and refined grains and the weight steadily piled back on. I remember feeling the uncomfortable difference from gaining back 20 pounds. Now that the gain is over 30 pounds, it's become physically and emotionally upsetting.
I appreciate the support of being here. Eagerly dragging out the trampoline, creating a walking schedule and considering a membership to Curves. No real diet plan, but surely cannot include sugar, flour or too much fat. For me, there can be no planned "cheat" days. Once I allow myself a trigger food, I'm setting myself up for defeat.
