five pound weight gain

crazyauntcheryl

I have been a member for almost a year now and have been able to lose a little weight at first and then at least maintain until lately. Something made me gat one the scale today (I am not a regular weigher) and found I have managed to gain five pounds since the last time I weighed myself (I don't actually remember when). I know what happened. The seasons changed and I was unable to walk for a half an hour as I did every afternoon, plue we started eating the heavier winter foods (It gets cold in southwestern PA) Then, my mother who I live with scheduled a knee-replacement surgery which added to her (and my) stress level (stress eating!) So I have decided to double up on my stationery bike exercise and cut back on the stress munching (the operation is over now anyhow) Wish me luck!
