So... Been 2 months or so since I've recorded a journal... And I have to say I'm feeling very disappointed in how little I've been concerned with my progress or staying on track. I feel huge even though everyone tells me I'm not. I just know what it feels like to be smaller and hate not being at my best. So once again... I'm on another Day 1. Devised a workout schedule around my new job... Back to actively tracking.. Hope to feel normal by the weekend. When I'm not paying attention I pack on so much water weight that I usually feel better about myself in a week. Very frustrated and just sad that I will never be able to just not do this... I will always have to work hard just to maintain...
But I realized I'd rather put the work in rather than not care. Decided not to weigh in yet... Don't need anything to hinder me... But I got some pics of me from this morning and will start using that to keep me going. Pretty depressing sight...
I'm glad to see my buddies sticking with it and progressing. Sucks I'm still trying to lose weight I've already lost. ::sigh:: have a great wk...

At least you are back, thats the main thing. Now stop beating yourself up (its unproductive) and kick some but I am sure in a couple weeks you will feel back to normal.

Hey girl! Welcome back. Missed you around here. "Very frustrated and just sad that I will never be able to just not do this... I will always have to work hard just to maintain... " No, no... you CAN do it!! I know you can! You just haven't found the way to apply moderation. You come here and go on a very strict way of eating, then you leave and go buck wild! lol! That's not because YOU are weak or anything silly like that, it's because you are being SO restrictive when you are restrictive that your body rebels. I know, been there, done that myself. The only way out of it is to learn moderation. You can do it! Yes, it takes work, but you CAN!

Lol @ k8 yeah ur right... I feel so good when I'm being disciplined that I tend to take it so far... Almost feel lost.. I know what to do... But feel like I don't have to strength to do this again.... So hard... I'm gonna do it... This first week is just so tough :(. Once I see improvement motivation is high and I'm good..

Whoa! Welcome back :) Aww cheer up, it happens to all of us. Everyone slips up every now and then, so don't beat yourself up! At least you realized now and not later (when you could have possibly been bigger than you are--which don't worry, you definitely don't sound as big as you make yourself out to be) that some changes have to be made. Hold your head up high, and keep telling yourself that you can do this, it's just going to take some work. We're all behind you! Hope you have a happy week :D

I'm on the same boat with you girl! I truly know how you feel! *hugs* I've realized recently that I will always have to keep myself in check. If I slip longer than a DAY I go back to the 'old me mode' and I gain back so quickly it's disgusting. :( I'm not looking at the scale right now, I just want to get back into the habit of tracking and exercising. Come April 1st, I'll do a weigh-in. K8 is definitely right about being too restrictive. I've been there too, so I try not to be too strict on what I eat, exercise, or just be too hard on myself. That only makes things worse.

@ lady... Yeah I usually tighten the belt the first week to get my appetite back in check... Then I try to get back to a reasonable intake... My issue ends up being holidays or birthdays and parties... I end up breaking for chunks of time... Now that this days almost over I'm feelin good... Wanted something bad and unhealthy... Then I wanted a cheesesteak for dinner... Husband compromised for me and made me the most delicious cheesesteak salad... I can do this... We all can!

Same here! I'm a munchie girl, so birthdays, parties and holidays are the worst for me! Once I fall off the wagon, I'm off for a while and it's a struggle to get back on. It's good you comprised, switched out the bread for veggies! :-)
