Accountability

[ReadySteadyGo 8]

Well. Not so good. I was a complete pig this weekend. I just couldn't get full. It's my fault. I was making bad choices. I think it's because I don't visit here on the weekend, so I don't get reminded that why I try to eat the right things.

Well finally - a scale movement!! I guess between the miniscule fill of last week, and the extra exercise, and sheer determination, the scale went down!!! The extra weight I gained two weeks ago went, as did 2 other pounds. YEAHHH!!!! I don't want to jinx myself, so I will just say I am very grateful and now, on to this week.

I was on a business trip yesterday so I have lots to catch up on!

Today is weigh day for me and no change. Not up or down, but I'm ok with that. I had a bad bad weekend. Not a preband weekend, but not a good bander weekend.

Lets see if I can step it up this week. Thankfully I am not a big fan of candy so Halloween shouldn't be too big of a problem...unless I drink booze.

[tapshoes 2]

RSG - that's a positive achievement - you had a 'bad' weekend, and still did not gain! Great! So avoid the candy and the booze this weekend...and see what next week brings.

[tapshoes 2]

On today's weigh in - I am down again! And with this 2 pound loss, I am now (just barely) into a normal BMI category...by a mere .3 of a pound, but I am there! So, the extra exercising on top of my usual (I guess now my usual is now the old usual plus 3) and the vigilance with nuts is paying off.

Thanks RSG! I never thought I would achieve this goal; never ever ever! But, I have, and although I know the scales can fluctuate and I could hit another plateau, for this moment, I am deliriously happy!

tapshoes, That's awesome! Congratulations.

I'm up a couple pounds after stopping my South Beach Diet plan. It's a mental game with me and it has been like going off a diet and eating forbidden things because I'm no longer doing it. I need a kick in the pants. Well, actually I need to get the stupid Halloween junk out of the house. It's all got to go.

I'm also really retaining Water. A nursing student I was visiting with yesterday said I have a level 3 pitting edema. So I know some of the weight is water, but I'm not eating very well, so I know it's that too.

Tomorrow is my official weigh day, so we'll see what happens.

Shiny/happy ... Get that candy out of your house! Don't let one holiday sabottage your hard work to date. Besides it sets a bad precedent for the next series of holidays....which are quickly approaching!

[Shinyhappymommy 2]

It's out. I had a stack sitting on the porch when hubby got home last night and he took care of it. Probably took it to work.

My official weight this morning was 212. Ugh. A 3 pound weight gain this week. A bit of a wake up call. It's all my eating because my exercise hasn't changed at all.

[ReadySteadyGo 8]

I'm up today. Two lbs. :-(

Oh well, I'll just keep swimming. It's my own fault. I didn't make the right choices this week, and I know that. So I am not discouraged, I am determined. Determined to stop being a dumb &*#

I'm down another .6 this morning. I've taken all but .2 back off and my ticker is accurate again. Yay! Wondering how much more I can get off in 4 days. Right now I'm down 8 pounds since my last doctor's appointment 2 months ago. Sounds okay but it's half of what I used to take off and 7 of those pounds were taken off in the last 2.5 weeks. Oh, well, at least it's going the right direction now.

How are you guys doing?
