And still keep my weight off ... oh Bobbi honey, bless you! If we had trackers that went like this
starting weight-lowest since tryin' hard-current-goal
mine would look like this
16?-119-137.8-125
Keeping it off is not something I'm good at. But I'm learning.
I absolutely CAN NOT WAIT to be over at the maintainers board. Simply can't wait. My heart is palapating just thinking about it. Though it does seem a bit intimidating, I will gladly, gladly be participating. I hope they know what they're in for.
Hi everyone.
Well my calories for yesterday were around 1750. Darn Pizza got me. But it still wasn't all terrible. I am at home today (took the day off of work) so my eating is a little different than ususal. My calories are should be lower today. I am just sitting here waiting for the races to start. I think that I am going to workout on the Gazelle while the races are going on. Talk to y'all later, lol!!

Hi ladies - I hope you don't mind if I join you. I have been reading this thread over the last couple of days. I hope i can keep up!
I think AnAbsoluteDiva has me motivated to start running. I ran track in high school (I was a distance runner not a sprinter) and reading about her success is making me want to start training again. When it warms up here I think I will! I also have just quit smoking too. My last cigarette was on January 2nd. Let me tell you - it was one of the hardest things to do, but so worth it. I have so much more energy to play with my son again. It is nice!
Had a bit of a slip up yesterday with all the goodies here at work, but I am back on track today and starting fresh!
There is a pink cupcake and a mini cinnamon roll calling my name right now. I think it's my mind just telling me to eat it just for the sake of eating it, because I just ate lunch. Thankfully, I'm lazy and in order for me to have one I need to get up. How long will that last though?
1600 calories is a bad day! Ladies, ya'll don't want to see my totals for yesterday. But I have no regrets and I enjoyed EVERY single bit and drink of wine. Ahh, the wine was so good!!! I think I totaled around 2800 -3000 calories yesterday. Not too sure, but I put in the high end for fitday.
Anyways, I'm off to the gym in about 15 minutes. Plan to do my shuffle/run around the indoor track for 30 minutes.
I have a confession. I, too, have started to lurk on the Maintaince board. I wanted to know how they do it, but it seems as if maintaining is just as hard as losing. Damn, will this a struggle that we have for the rest of our lives?

AHHH, I am going crazy right now. I've been good for a week and didn't weigh myself because I thought it would be nice to be surprised with maybe a 1 lb loss or something after being the same weight for months... I GAINED 5 LBS THIS WEEK! I don't understand how I could binge and binge and not gain weight and then when I start eating in my calorie range and eating healthy I gain 5 lbs in a week. I am very discouraged right now.
I am not sensitive to sodium (I haven't even ate anything with alot of sodium anyway...), it's not TOM or anywhere near TOM and I have never gained during TOM anyway... I don't understand what this could be from. But I'd like to hope it's not real. I am definately going back to weighing every day... This is why I hate weighing once a week!

I am so, so, so sorry to hear you gained 5 pounds this week. This is what I always fear--and one more argument as to why I weigh daily. I can keep it in check only if I do it daily. If I think I'm doing well the scale is my only real measure of truth.
I hope, like you hope, that this is temporary for you.....Best of luck.
