OMG!!!!!!!!!! I am so frustrated but have no one to blame but myself!!!
Overall, I have lost 13 pounds. I had been down 19 pounds but have gained 6 back. I keep losing and gaining the SAME SIX POUNDS!!!!!!!!
To top that off, I really need to lose a total of about 20 MORE pounds. That sounded a lot easier when I was six pounds lighter and could say, "Well, I need to lose about 14 more pounds..."
When I stay on the program, I slowly lose weight. But after the holidays and all the travel, I got out of the practice of going to the meetings. THEN slowly, I quit logging my points. Of course, that's when the pounds crept back up.
One thing that's going against me mentally is that I'm tall, so I honestly don't "look so bad." BUT - I HATE this roly poly flabby fat around my stomach - and of course, I feel and look better with the extra pounds off.
Another challenge that I have is that my husband and I travel a lot. I get out of my groove - miss a meeting or two for legitimate reasons and then start to slide right off again. Eat weird food when we're on the road. Then I get afraid to get on the scale when we get home. Then I starve myself for a few days telling myself, "Just a couple of days and then I will get on the scales and it will be OK" - but then because I'm really not eating in a balanced way, well - it's just not as effective as the WW program.
Tonight I got my head together and I'm back on the bandwagon - going to the meeting tomorrow!
