Goldk - I know exactly what you mean ... I have been in the same boat all summer - just out of routine and letting 'life' get in the way of my weightloss. I've been doing pretty well for a week and a half now. I think you just have to force yourself to string a few good days together by keeping your weightloss goals a top priority, and then after the first few days it gets easier (as long as you don't let it slide for too long). We can do it!

What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? stayed under calories
What would I have done differently? didn't need the hotdogs with buns for supper, or the doritos

Just wanted to update:
I have continued to do well with calories since I last posted. Also, on Sunday, I did a 15 minute walk & Zumba. Monday I walked for 30 minutes. Wednesday, I did 15 minutes of back exercises including crunches & also did push-ups.

Monday evening, my husband and I drove to Corpus Christi, TX where my son was in the emergency room. He had Appendicitis and surgery while we were driving there. My son and I drove back yesterday. He is doing well, now.

Monday morning I weighed in and had lost a pound! So far maintaining that 1 pound lost. Amazing considering how I usually gain under stress or traveling and I had both going on.

Luv,
Linda
