Thanks Dan,
I did finish out the day strong, but saw a pound gain this morning. Guess I cant just eat what I want and it wont matter. That mindset is so dangerous!! Really makes me think that the little "nibbles" here and there really do make a difference!
You're right Kristen.. The nibbles and bites here and there eventually do add up.. But the one thing to remember is that the 1 lb. gain you saw this morning is more than likely caused by the actual physical food you still have in your body.. It usually takes a couple of days for the damage we do to show up as an actual weight gain as our body processes the fats, starches and proteins. Same thing with a weight loss... It takes a day or so for us to see if a TO has been successful...
Yeh, I know what you mean though. I just hate seeing the scale go UP not DOWN!!! I guess I shouldnt be stepping on the scale every day anyways, it becomes an obsession. I remember when I first started the program 5 years ago, and in the first week I lost 5 lbs, then just kept going down 2 lbs per week. Not so far this time. Oh well!!!

Hi Jersey...
I also am starting up again on my own. I can't go back to the center, as I have not been in for almost a yr and I quit for a while...all that money... but I am starting now on the purple plan, right where I left off! Good luck to you! At least we have this place, so we are not totally at it alone!
Talk about a chocolate weakness?? My honey works for Hersheys chocolate. He brings me cases of chocolate. Well, not anymore. It's a constant battle!!! Hang in there all!!
WOW!!! I feel so sorry for you (and a lot jealous). Avoiding chocolate is tough, which is why Im glad I have my Pria bars, but they still dont substitute and handful of peanut M&M's (or six handfuls) LOL!
