Hello everyone!!

Well....After being off plan for the past three months, I'm back OP beginning tomorrow. I did so well when I first began MRC but for some reason I just needed to take a break. I am recommitting myself to getting down to my original goal.
One good thing is I have gained only 5lbs so I haven't done too much damage.

I have been lurking around trying to catch-up on how everyone has been doing......Wow!!!There are so many new people here. Everyone seems to be doing great!

Grad and Hawaii: Thanks for the encouraging PMs. Thanks for thining of me....You guys are great!

Hi all! Well, I too have taken three months off and am back on the wagon again. I gained 7 while on my hiatus but deservedly so...because I mostly threw caution to the wind. I just can't do that anymore - it's how I got fat in the first place. So, I didn't learn my lesson yet so I'm back to finish up and lose 27 to hit my final goal. Glad to see so many of you still plugging along with such great success!

Sharon and Bonnie! So glad to have you back!! You can do it. I was a little bummed after coming back from my surgery and having gained 8 lbs, but I jumped back in and I've gotten it off. This weigh in on Weds. should show my "first" real loss since finally getting the 8 lbs back off.

Note on eating out- We went over to Hilton Head on Saturday for a nice day trip. Went out to eat at a very nice Sea Food Restaurant sitting on the water. It was beautiful outside. Scanned my choices and choose the grilled fish and grilled shrimp with veggies and rice pilaf- which I didn't eat. Anyway, word of wisdom, ASK if any special sauces are put on it. When it came out, they was some sort of butter sauce over the shrimp and fish!! I was not a happy camper- but I made the most of it by getting as much off as possible. I learned that I will ASK next time how the food is prepared, and not to assume that because it is grilled, that they don't add something to it!!
Just some food for thought for those that are like me and eat out a lot!!

BUT I have stayed OP 100%, yes, it has only been 2 days, but I am sticking with this. I am anxious to see if I have lost any in the past few days.. I go in for WI tomorrow and to get my next menu.. I am really hoping for just a few more choices!
I remember how hard the 1st few days and even the 1st week or so, the Headaches and nausea will go away it is like your body is detoxing. You doing great and it will become easer!!!!

jstuckley - Just curious...what kind of exercise do you do and how often? You always seem to have big numbers in both weight loss and inches.

Default Update
I must not have updated my ticker. I signed the 40 lb board on Friday. I've lost 43 lbs so far. I'm averaging -.5 lbs a day - isn't that crazy?! I've been on MRC for 85 days. I'm planning on my first "planned off plan" time this weekend. I'm going to KC with 5 of my closest girlfriends for a little girl time! I still plan to make wise choices at most meals but know I will also bend a little.
I must admit, it's getting a little tougher to stay OP all of the time. I thought it would get easier with time but those temptations are still there.

Hope everyone has a great on plan week!

The only exercise I do to be truthful is on Tuesday and Thursdays I coach peewee cheerleading for 1 hour. Sometimes I work really hard and some times I don't. But I drink tons and tons of water!!!!! A lot more then 64 oz a day maybe like 120 oz if not more on some days. Maybe If i walked a little I could lose more....Also I drink the fiber drink 3 x a week to help get the wast out of that body.. Just find out what works for you.

I totally understand what you are going through!! Do you have any of the mini crisps, creamy cocoa or chocolate pudding? That usually always helps me!

I always have the mini crisps when I am craving chocolate. You can't get too far off base with that.
