    I once heard a very wise person say that she was just one cookie away from being 300 lbs again (she was about 150 lbs at the time). I thought that statement was a little drastic at the time. However, I have come to realize the truth of it. I followed a very rigid eating plan to lose the weight after my 4th child. But when my baby turned one, that piece of birthday cake that I ate quickly turned into 20 lbs gained. I know now that if I don't keep control of the food, it will control me. That being said, I find the thought of eating healthy for the rest of my life to be a little (okay, a lot) daunting. That's why tomorrow has become my best friend. I tell myself that I'm going to eat healthy forever, so I will enjoy one last day of treats today. Unfortunately, today has lasted for several months.

    So my new mantra is "For Today". I will not think about eating healthy tomorrow (until tonight when I plan tomorrow's food). I will decide to eat healthy "for Today". When I get through today, I will recommit tomorrow, and the next day and the next. Hopefully, when I've chosen the right enough times, I will forget to have to choose, it will just be my life.
    I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS!!!

    This is what happened to me. I took off the gym for a week and ate crap when my kids and husband went to camp and it just led to a whole mess of trouble. That one week "off" caused me to backslide for the last few months of 2012. I don't blame the OP for being anal-retentive. Weight loss is a journey not a diet.

    But you're here now, you're aware of what happened, you CAN get back in control and move past this!!:wink::drinker:

    I do understand what you're saying though, it sucks to have to re-lose lbs. already lost, maybe reset your ticker to your current weight and watch yourself drop back down!! You can SO do this!!!:bigsmile:
