Getting Back On Track Tomorrow!
 

I started my diet at the beginning of September, did really well for a week and then just pretty much gave up. I think it was just depression. I was unemployed for a year but I start my new job tomorrow (yay!). I've been inspired to start again because it is something I really want. I just need to take it slow......and maybe slow down on the beer, lol:carrot:

congrats on restarting and getting a new job! Slow and steady is the key :)

That's a dif on the beer, u can't imagine what that does to the tummy!!!! I speak from experience!!!

I am in the same boat!

I always try and be perfect and that never works!

Slow and steady all the way!

And for me - it's the wine or vodka!

*We can do it!!!!*

Yay good for you....I am still exercising a lot but off plan with food..need to get that back on track too!

Good Luck...

What are you doing to get back on track? That's always the hard part for me -making a plan of action.

I need to get back on track too - I tried the atkins and managed to stick to it for 3wks but I sliped a disc in my back on Friday and i just felt so misrable about being stuck in the house that I had a chinese and a KFC.

I dont know how to start back though cause I can't really do any exercise now and im full of carbs. :(

Congrats on the new job!

I just got back on track today too! I was doing really well for a few weeks and then last week for some reason I wanted nothing but McDonalds, Dominos, and Ben and Jerrys...it was a bad week.

I'm starting over today and keep telling myself to stick to it for at least this first week (and hopefully that will jumpstart me for the weeks/months after that) because I get to see my husband in 8 days after being apart for 2 months...and I don't think I've lost a darn pound!

Good luck and let us know how you are doing!

I really need to get back on track! I am maintaining, but honestly, with what I have been eating, I shouldn't be. I still have 9 (or maybe 14) lbs to lose, but since I've been back at school, I have been indulging in my favorite new de-stressor... cooking and lots of baking. I think I was led astray by my roommate, but as I cannot eat 15 cookies in a day like she does and stay thin, I should not take her advice.

I need to make a no sweets (also perhaps no baking at all rule... today I made brioche. It was delicious!) rule, and stick to it. If I don't eat sweets, I don't crave them. I should only allow myself to cook. I did make an incredible vegetable chili the other day, with lentils and barley and bulgar wheat and black beans...

The rule has been enacted!
