did my once a year reboot...P1 to 2 to 3 back in September and thought I was in control. Not sure what happened the last 2 months...I wanted to do a full reboot but I have a big 2 nights out planned for next week and it will interrupt my plan. But I will have been 100% for 8.5 days before I go out Wednesday night so hopefully I can counter some of that bad behavior.
the weird part is figuring out what you are able to do Forever....still learning.

Trying to get those 7 lbs to go away, lost 3.5 of them in the last couple of weeks on Phase 1. Now to get rid of a few more. I would really like to go down an additional 5lbs for comfort, will see how that goes..... Heading to New Orleans for 4 days next week. It's hard to be good down there, there is so much good food!
I hear ya....heading to Foxwoods casino for two nights...I don't have enough resolve at this point because I really am very happy with how I look so I know I will give in so...I am just planning it and then maybe I will have some ounce of control. Good luck.

Can you believe in that after pic according to the charts I was still considered overweight. Dont know about those charts.
Yup...according to the scales I am still quite overweight too, but I had to let the messed up BMI thing go. I have seen women who look so flabby and large be a healthy BMI...it does not take bone structure and muscle mass into account at all. Don't lose another pound...you look great.
