Wow.... so I haven't been on the site for a while... and I have really slacked off because of it. I haven't worked out for over a week and have had a few binging days in the last week. I am starting this very minute to get back on track! Tomorrow I am going to go to the gym for 2 hours. I'm going to get back to my good eating habits tomorrow also.... since I am done eating for today.

I feel guilty, but only because I let myself slip. It's okay though. I'm going to get over this and I'm going to keep coming to this site daily, because that really helped. I am also going to start tracking my intake again. I think that's what started this setback. I stopped writing my calories into a food log. It's hard work.... but at the same time it's not.... you know what I mean?

Anyway, I hope that you all have had successful weeks. I'll check back tomorrow!

Hey - did you come back? You did - that shows real perseverance - good for you. I'm giving you good vibes for smart choices tomorrow and have a great time working it at the gym.

Just hop right back on, don't beat yourself up about it. You have lost 20 pounds, that so awesome!!! Your little break didn't undo that, and if you take a little break every so often it won't kill you; if you catch yourself early like you did this time you will reach your goal no problem!!! I'm glad that you're back! Have a fun time at the gym, be proud that you're back!

We all have our slips just don't let it get you down. I always try to remember it didn't take a couple of days to gain all of the weight I have so it's not going to take a just a couple of days to lose it. Even on your worst slips there is always a new start tomorrow. Congrats on getting back to it.

I was just about to make a similar post- I totally fell off the wagon this past month.

It all started with a dinner party with friends, then a trip to Kentucky to visit my boyfriend's mom (NOTHING healthy at restaurants there!)... then I started school and didn't have time to work out or make healthy meals. A lot of take out and a lot of beer/martinis at the bar later, I'm starting over.

But it's ok- I started a new diet and exercise routine a week ago and I'm feeling great.

Pilates, eliptical trainer, push-ups, and Marilu Henner's 30 day total health makeover are all my focus for the next 21 days...

GOOD LUCK to you in getting back with the program. We're only human- this will happen to everyone. (I'm really dreading the holidays now, though)

Well, I thank you all for your wonderful comments! I did well with getting back to my healthy eating.... however... I managed to forget to bring a t-shirt to work out in after work ( i had the pants!) Some days you feel like a nut! I kept really busy at work, so I don't feel guilty about it.

I just ate lunch, do any of you ever get really sleepy after lunch? I am soooo sleepy right now. I'm at work, so I can't take a nap!

I come home for lunch and did take a nap yesterday! Oops overslept a little but good thing my afternoon appointment cancelled so it was all good.

*Amanda's @ss is still sore from the tumble she took off the wagon* Glad to see y'all again!
