skygirl, is TOM or ovulation near? Both those can cause a jump in the scale from retained water. Keep doing what you're doing and you should whoooosh soon!

Wowzers! Now that I am staying on track, I can really see some results! I got on the scale today, and guess what ladies. Since I came back from my honeymoon in July 2010,
I have lost ten pounds!
The scale read 154.6 this morning, my lowest low ever.
I stayed on plan and even went for a run this evening. After the run I ended up going to a late movie and now I'm home and falling asleep fast. Its wicked late on a school night. I'm dreading the morning
Oh dear, today was a bad day for me, I bought a bag of chocolate candy to decorate my cupcakes for my cousins on Sunday and I had it opened near my computer desk so I was eating it while I was playing videos games, when I looked at the bag again, it was half gone. Lesson learned, don't put junk food near the computer desk and tell myself "just 2 pieces".
Another good day. The last couple of days the weight have fluctuated up. I'm up a few pounds from my lowest, but I've been definitely OP and under my calorie mark.
I'm still a bit sore from the running I've done on Monday and Wednesday, so maybe this is causing a bit of water retention. I do plan on going running tomorrow night too.
I think I'm due for a "whoosh" soon which will drop me into the 180s. It always seems hardest to make it into another decade
BTW, lately has not been the best times for me in terms of depression/ life issues. Today was particularly bad. Combination of work stress and relationship issues just about did me in. I was about ready to do something stupid (head to the bar) when I realized that I would not be able to put another smiley face up here.
I'm glad for this forum and thread for keeping me from being my own worse enemy.
matt-- good job resisting that temptation! I had my own little stress-induced falling off the wagon today, and I remember just how bad doing that something stupid makes me feel afterwards. Charms is right, "overeating won't fix anything" and neither will a bit of bar time!
Thank you so much Charms! I hope you're right! BTW your av-pic is so adorable. And congrats on all your success, lots of smilies!
Rough week for me, but hanging in there.
Still lifting weights, which I really like. I feel stronger and better when I do this a few times a week.
I just finished reading Eat To Live. I've got The Beck Solution next up on the list.
Congrats to everyone staying on plan, losing weight, hanging in there, and getting back on track after an off plan day!

The way I see it is as long as I try to stay on track, I am doing good! I just need to tell myself to stay away from the candy that is EVERYWHERE! AAAAAAAAAA! lol
As of mid-day today, I weigh 156, which is 8 pounds down from when I started. (I flux a lot, lol) I know that if I stick to my plans and try to keep going with exercise and everything that I will eventually reach my goals. As someone else said on these message boards, we are trying to create consistency, and slip-ups aren't something to feel super guilty about, but instead, something to tell yourself to acknowledge as a tiny in break in the big vast lifechange you are currently experiencing.
Halloween is around the corner and I am very nervous.
Dont be nervous. Just remember the candy makers rubbed their snotty noses while working and may have accidently drooled into the candy. Who would even want to think about eating that?! LOL (gross I know, but it WORKS as a turn off)
I am silly tired. Had my grandbaby for 12 hours today plus worked line a maniac. Tomorrow I'm going to do as little as possible!
But I AM here to collect my smiley face. It does make me happy to see it before bedtime
