I GAINED

Options
Alright here it goes...I GAINED

I gained...yes I gained...fist time since I started with my weight lost journey...(that will never end)

I have no excuses...I enjoyed every moment of it and I didn't feel guilty at all...I knew going to the States was going to be fun..I was prepared for my gain...I have not had Olive Garden in almost 10 years...damn it was excellent!!

ate too much...didn't get normal daily exercise in...and didn't drink all my water...

I'm back on track today...what I would have done in the past is to blow it all to hell...
until I gained back all that I lost plus more..for me it's about learning moderation this time...

if you have a bad day...celebration...vacation it's o.k. But be done with it...don't wallow in your sorrows...brush yourself off and keep your head up...tomorrow is another day...

    Okay so you gained.....As this has to be a totally liveable change those things are going to happen. You were prepared for it, which is good. How often do you get to the states?? So you induldged. As you said today is a new day, the seat on wagon is ready for your behind cheeks :)

    Wonderful attitude. And probably, anything you did gain on vacation was mostly water so it won't be too terribly hard to get back off. But yes, if we're going to do this as a permanent lifestyle, there will be fluctuations, up and down. Glad to see you dealing with it and getting back on track. The guilt is the worst. I'm glad you're feeling none of it. :-)
