I was at a Women of Faith conference all weekend with some girlfriends... did not log any food at all... and today... it is so hard to get back on track. I barely had more than 1 cup of water all weekend and today, I gain 2 pounds.

I'm feeling so icky today... just wanted to give up!

    Try not to be discouraged, friend! I'll bet you had increased sodium intake this weekend and without water intake to balance it out, you may have some water retention. Just jump back in and don't forget to get your water in! Keep the sodium in check too....and I bet you'll see a difference in a day or two. Chin up, sista! This will happen to ALL of us! Remember this is a lifestyle change and weekends like this are part of life. Don't let it knock you off the wagon permanently. Hang in there! :)

    Mondays stink for me too!!! Not so much because I have bad weekends but because I always have my expectations set too high on Mondays LOL - I have that "new week mentality" and I figure I'll work out for 2 hours and eat perfect. Funny that perfect never seems to happen, then I fight my all-or-nothing thinking all week.

    Water, water, water. Did I mention water? And remember - one day at a time!
