Thanks ladies... I can't believe how fast the three years have gone. I honestly thought I would be rocking my goal weight by now.. or at least under 140lbs but alias the fight continues!

Welcome to Year Three! I'm almost one month in (10th) glad you had a good trip and welcome back! Truly a "ho hum" day for me. Very uneventful except the hubs and I wen to see "Now you see me" at the movies. Just finished my exercises and my food for the day. Glad this day is close to ending. I stuck it out and did my "2" day but I sure wanted to eat ice cream! Ha! On another note, I had 2TB PB2 chocolate on a plain rice cake for a 80 cal snack. Yu um!!

OMG! I could actually cry ... when I weighed yesterday morning I had put 6lbs on... that is a pound a day! I was so angry, frustrated and upset with myself. I thought about the week away and there is NO WAY have I eaten enough to gain that much in such a small space of time. I didn't gain that much when I went on holiday for two weeks, all inclusive last year.

My tummy is super swollen again too and quite tender - not sure why as I didn't exactly 'hit the gym' in Spain. Although, I did a lot of walking, a bit of swimming and lugging around heavy bags - perhaps that did it?

I had planned to fast yesterday but I didn't - not sure if the number on the scale threw me off course. I didn't go mad but I did have 4 small sweeties that were left in work at around 11am, and that sorta put the tone for the day down. lunch was better; two chicken legs with salad. Tea was good; pork chop and stir fry. But I grazed on Pork rinds. My cals wouldn't of been too high but I just felt so disheartened that I couldn't resist the chocolate! It really isn't like me...once I set my mind to something I normally do it.

I weighed again this morning and I am down 3 of those 6! So I am hoping it is Water retention - my legs and ankles felt really tight yesterday too.

I am starting to feel frustration and that sense of desperation again and I don't like it. Perhaps I should just lick my wounds over the weekend and refocus next week? *sighs*

I'm also starting to feel 'fat' again and I really don't like that either. It is such a horrible feeling and one that I thought I had overcome...

and so the battle continues!

Coops,

I know how you feel, I had a complete emotional breakdown 2 days after coming home from vacation. I don't know if it was withdraws from the foods I had been eating or exhaustion. Or the fact that food eating.. not eating.. wanting to eat.... Plays such a MAJOR role in our lives still..

I know you and I have shy bowels on vacation..

Perhaps that's why your stomach is so swollen?

I can say I pushed my Water intake a lot when I got home to flush everything out. I got a 32oz bottle and drained it 31/2 times daily. So never underestimate the power of Water.

Hang in there, I'm sure it will even out in a few days!

Coops so sad that your going through this right now......I'm am also a little relieved to hear that 3lbs of it was Fluid retention. The other 3 lbs will come off quickly but meanwhile it is hard emotionally and I too have the fat lady syndrome come up when my scale fluctuates. My dam scale teased me the other day and said I weighed in at 137.2 lbs. I got on a third time and then reality showed up, I weighed 145.2 lbs. for a while. I realize that I'm never going to be happy with the # on the scale. I know this is different for everybody. This is a hard struggle. I am taking the weekend and eating regular where I eat high Protein and veggies. this is my rest period..... Monday and Wednesday I will fast. I haven't fasted yet and kept it at 500 though, I seem to hit 600 calories and I still loose. It's working for me so far.... I believe you have 3 more lbs of Water retention and it will come off really soon..........

Don't worry, when all that um, poop, comes out and you are back on a schedule your body will respond and lose the extra three. I feel sure. Was talking to a friend who is "normal". Lol. She was complaining that she went on a weekend trip and when she weighed was two lbs up in two days with normal eating! It happens to everyone. Body chemistry. Take courage. All is well.

Haha!

I was going to tell her she was probably just full of **** (I know I was) but it just didn't sound right any way I wrote it
