ALL THE TIME!!!! It's almost like when I see some weight come off, I get all cocky and say to myself,"see, you got this licked, you don't need to worry anymore." Then bam, I'm right back where I started. It's kind of like the alcoholic who keeps thinking they can do casual alcohol...I can't do casual eating without point counting and I just need to get that through my thick skull!!

I'm with Jayne - I get to a reasonable weight usually just a little above WW goal and think I can eat anything I want. I've been struggling with that all summer but as of Saturday no more....well at least until the next time!
