Well day 5- I feel better today. Tummy not so sore. I find long haul flights mess with my natural rhythm if you get my meaning.
Anyhow down to 188 today so skipping with happiness. Thats 4lbs since staurday. I'm perfectly aware that some will be water weight, but I'm ok. At least I don't feel bloated and am still feeling positive about the chages I am making.
Off to the gym. Was a bit useless yesterday so I will need to be a bit more effective today !

Well back from an awesome time in UK. Had a bit of an epiphany. I know I look good, know I want to lose some weight but am so proud of what i have already achieved.
Up 2lbs but today was after 9 hours in te car, full of sodium + TOM. Hopefully we will be going down soon.
Feeling positive and really very happy
Congrats on your 100 lb. loss Starbrite, that is such an accomplishment. Like you I'm trying to keep focusing on the positives of what I've done and chip away at what I want to get off.
I weigh everyday, the fluctuations don't bother me anymore, I've tried to train myself to compare week to week rather than day to day, it's my way of acknowledging that I'm at least going to attempt to be on program. I know from my past behavior if I don't weigh in I start to slip away from my program. So that's just me, everyone's different.
Again, congrats and thanks for sharing your renewed journey!
Still trucking along. Was up 0.7 yesterday and down again today. Am hoping the effects of TOM and travel are beginning to dissipate .Just got to keep n keeping on
I sort of feel your pain. I haven't gotten to goal and regained, but I've been stuck 22-32 pounds from goal for a full year now. The fluctuations got to me so bad, I'm currently on a scale break. I guess it's good practice for maintenance, right?
Hang in there and keep working at it. You've done it before, you can do it again. No excuses, no ignoring it. You've got this!
Thanks Riddy,Mrs Snark and Kelijpa
I'm getting there. It's hard to acknowledge that losing focus has meant a weight gain. I would NOT advocate a scale break, because thats what caused the regain for me. I got sloppy and thought I could allow foods to creep in that I knew would cause a gain. Having said that I totally understand the need o conquer the scale depression. When it goes down it's awesome, but the bouncing is awful I agree.
Down today another 1.8lbs. Think the travel and TOM weight is moving. Just leaves 13lbs til my interim weight.
When I hit goal last time I loved what I looked like, but many people said I was too thin. Thought this time I'd get half way and see how I feel. I lost the 145lbs 10 pounds at a time. The regain I'm taking at a pound a time
I'm going to get there, and so are you
