Isn't that so maddening?

I was in Weight Watchers a long time ago, and they don't give you "credit" for weight loss if you gain. In other words, if your starting weight is 220 and you gain 2 pounds, then you lose those 2 pounds, they say you haven't lost any weight. I say bullcrap - you just got a new starting weight, that's all. You absolutely, positively, no-two-ways-about-it lost 2 pounds, so there. And if anyone argues with me, I'll sit on them. ha ha ha

Having said that, it's hard to feel good about losing weight, when all you're really doing, in your mind, is RE-losing weight, to get you back to where you started. A couple of years ago, I actually got down to 205. So I won't feel like I'm really losing weight until I get to 204. Remind me of this post if I start complaining!

LittleSister, I completely understand what you're saying about relosing weight. About 4 years ago, I lost about 30 pounds doing WeightWatchers. Funny how my starting weight here was very similar to my one then. I got down to 197... under the 200s for the first time in many years, and then just fell off the wagon (too much eating out, not writing everything down, cheating). Was so pissed at myself for gaining the weight back over the next several years. So, these first 30 or so I lose here will seem like just relosing that weight, which sort of sucks, but we do what we must, and it's still weight lost!

This weekend has been okay. Didn't go to the rec center today. I did go yesterday after work, even though I wasn't feeling super hot and was glad I went through with it. Will go tomorrow though. Eating has been fine today. Although the roomies brought home a chocolate pecan pie (dies) from Thanksgiving. I will probably splurge and have a TEENSY piece. My calorie intake is pretty low for the day (as I slept through the first meal of the day... gotta love the weekends), so I should be right at my daily target or only a little over.

When I weighed myself this morning, I was only 1 pound up from my weigh in on Thanksgiving morning. It could have been a LOT worse. Will spend this week hopefully working that one off. I will be happy if I just stay stable this week, though the thought of being in the 210's again makes me all tingly inside!

of course, I couldn't find my soft measuring tape and only had the plastic kind that my husband uses to measure stuff so I had to bend it around myself.
