Hi all,

I was shocked when I logged on today as I have not dieted for the past 4 months. I was in shock to see I had put on 15 pounds. I had lost 77 but now got to get back on track. Started counting calories again today so hopefull by Christmas I can loose a good 8 - 10 pounds. Got to kick myself into gear!

    I feel your pain! I was down to 140 lbs for my august wedding, but today I'm weighing in at 153 lbs, barely within my healthy zone! It's so easy to get distracted from exercise and healthy choices, I sort of went a little wild for a few months. I'm back to work now though!

    If you lost 77lbs losing those pesky 15 you gained back should be a snap...Good Luck!
  • I am back as well, as much as it pains me to admit how bad I've been. Being sick, stressed, and busy will do awful things to your weight. Time to get my life together hehe, we can do it!

    I'm right there with you! I've been really slacking and I've gain a couple back. However I have 10 pounds total and they are just not coming off! I have a swimsuite to get into in Jan so that's my motivation! Good luck! You can do it! :)
  • Thanks all, had a good day today and dancing tonight so should burn off some calories. Keep going girls!

    Last fall I thought "I got this".

    I know what I'm doing. I know my foods, I can do the math in my head, I've been maintaining for almost eight months. No problem, right?

    :noway: :grumble:

    I gained that dreaded "Last ten pounds". It took me six months to lose them again. I was determined this year to learn from my mistake!

    This year I went into Fall flat-out. No excuses for me. Keep track. Exercise through the boredom, the weather, the injuries. I am proud to say I lost four more pounds since I lost that "Last Ten Again" & I hope I learned something.
