Week 38 results...not what I had hoped for...HUGE Gain...
Todays post is one that I would rather not write, I hate to write that I have gained, but the fact that I was so close to my 100 lb goal and now, not so much, makes it even harder.
Lots of things happened this week. I did see my 100 lb loss on Tuesday, then on Wednesday, I let myself have some wheat and the next days I was up 2 1/2 lbs. I guess a lot of last weeks loss really was water weight. I was slowly taking that 2 1/2 lbs off when over the weekend, I fell into a pizza...and some movie popcorn...and, no I will spare you the details.
I am also going to start this week, so there are lots of things going on here, be let's be honest, I had a bad couple of days and that's the reality and why I didn't reach my goal.
I won't give up, but I really wish this weekend wasn't Thanksgiving. The mother of all challenging food holidays.
I am still here and will always give you the truth no matter how much it pains me, and believe me, this pains me.

You can do it, Sandi!! Don't let a bad week get you down. You know what happened and why, acknowledge and move on...to that 100 lb. mark!! :) (((hugs)))
Thanks for being so honest about something that's so hard. For me, losing weight was two steps forward and one step back. Eventually I got there, and I have no doubt you will, too. Stress is tough on those of us with eating issues, and holidays are stressful, trying to achieve a goal is stressful, lots of little things add up to big stress. I think you have the perfect attitude--you slipped, you get up, and you start again.

Yep, it happened and that's life and it's bound to happen again on this life-long journey of loss and maintenance.
The difference is this time you've developed the coping strategies and mindset to accept it, move on and look to the future with renewed vigor instead of letting it get you down, giving up and finding yourself at the bottom of a buttered popcorn carton. Nope, that's not gonna happen.
Looking forward to next week's post. I have a feeling it'll put a smile on my face.
