I need to stay strong.
I gave all my big clothes away too!! But can survive the Labor Day weekend! You message me if you need to! I just restarted on Monday and thought I would never get back to where i was and here I am. Trying to get past my anger towards myself because Day 4 I am feeling awesome. Cheers to now knowing that maintenance is realllllly important! !

I'm about 15 lbs from my lowest weight but that might have been an unrealistic weight. I want to lose at least 10 and then reassess. It is such a slippery slope! I am 5 lbs. above the weight I said I would NEVER let myself rise above again!! I did quite well for the first year. My thin clothes are getting tight. Some of the smallest ones I would look, er, would it be offensive if I said, like a hooker? An old hooker! Maybe middle aged. I am having surgery on my shoulder on Friday. I had the first shoulder done in January 2011 which is when I first went on IP. I've stayed op today but am going to have my last glass of wine tonight. Since I'm having my right shoulder done and I am R handed it may be difficult to post for a little while. I may get DH to do it! Anyway, hello to all of you who are restarting. The good thing is, we know it works if we stick to it! May the force be with you!
Hang in there with your arm! Good luck! My mom broke her right shoulder last month so I have been helping her a lot since my dad has to travel a lot. So despite the frustration, focus on eating IP and not carbs while you are recovering. If I could I would come do your hair for you, that is one thing my mom really appreciates, I blow dry her hair for her 2 times a week.

The nurse told me to test on this Saturday and if by Monday no period yet, to call the hospital for an appointment, but of course since I can't wait until Saturday without testing, I bought the cheap pregnancy tests to do meanwhile and left the good brand for Saturday. Meanwhile, no dieting for me now, but the hard thing is that I don't really know what to eat! I would much rather have the discipline of being on IP than guessing what should I be eating.
I will sure re-start if I am sure I am not pregnant, but of course not if I am (hoping for the latter, cannot wait to know what it is like to be pregnant).
Wish me luck.
I would maybe stick with a phase 3 mentality if you are worried about being pregnant because that is a normal healthy way of eating for many lifestyles.
You don't want to fall off wagon too much in case you aren't pregnant, that will only upset you. hang in there! Keep us posted.
