Join the journey again...the road is long and winding but this is just a speed bump... GOOD LUCK!!0
-
alway the beer thats why I moved to bud 55 but I fell off the good for you food truck this week to so just get back on with us and look out for the beer0

I feel your pain...you work your butt off to get rid of every single pound and one bad week and it piles back on. ARGH!!! You've done amazingly, though...just get back on track and you'll be golden in no time!0

CHUG, CHUG, CHUG!!! Water this time... not beer! :drinker:
A lot of that is probably the sodium at the restaurants. Get back to your healthy eating, and you will be just fine!0 -
thats nt that bad for an all inclusive, i would have prob clocked up a lot more than that lol0

No failure...you did it once you can do it again!0

I'm jealous about the all inclusive thing... vacation, ahhhh... sounds lovely!!!! just get back on Braddah!!!! Drink plenty of water and don't look back!

Everything considered, that's not bad. I picked up a few pounds when I went away on vacation (2 I think) but getting right back on the plan and it was gone in less than a week with another pound as well. Get that water flowing and I think you'll see them come off quickly.0

I wish you wouldn't call it a "failure" because you gained a few lbs back. Even the slimmest folks out there sometimes gain weight when they go on vacation too. I prefer to think of it as a temporary setback. Just get back on track and you will lose it. Obviously you were doing something right, just resume it. Just my thoughts. :flowerforyou:0

Don't be discouraged. It is 8 measly pounds. You'll lose that in no time.0

who goes on a vacation to eat nothing but rabbit food and not enjoy themselves? it's called vacation for a reason! just hop back on the bandwagon - stay the course! hope your vacation was lovely!0
-
That'll come off quickly when u get back on it. I managed 11lb at a 4 day rock festival. Beer and fast food from festival sites will do that especially when you're already too fat too give it loads to metallica! It came off within a week though0

Relax. Easy come, easy go. This will likely be the quickest 8 lbs you've ever lost. No doubt that a lot of it is water weight. You didn't gain 8 lbs of fat in 1 week. Well, it would be highly unlikely anyway.0
-
that's far from failure! you had fun? yeah? now your home you can get back on track! :happy:0
-
I started in the beginning of Feb and I've only lost 10 pounds sooooo I don't feel bad for you! Haha Seriously
Don't sweat it. Just get back on the horse!0 -
Most of it's water, retained from high sodium prepared foods that you had during your holiday, no doubt. You'll lose it quick if you get right back to it. I hope you had a FANTASTIC time and I look forward to gaining ONLY 8 lbs when I go for my all inclusive week vacation in May! Thanks for posting! You did really well actually!!0

life happens! Now, back on the wagon!!0

Wow, so many replies.... Thank you all for your kind words - the rabbit comment made me laugh as I went to Malta who's national dish is rabbit, and there were lots of it.
The main thing that really got to me was that now and again when I logged in I would get a nice message saying you have logged in for 60 days... now I have to start it all over again.
Right off to the pub....
Ok perhaps I will have some rivita with cottage cheese instead.0
