in Getting Started
I thought I'd be fine... took a break... BAD BAD BAD... If you don't check your e-mail they get out of hand. Well, same for me when I don't follow my MFP rules. As a result 13 pounds came back on. Feeling poorly, decided to hop the scales just to check - horrified, came back to MFP today, added in my meals so far today, grab a bottle of water and went for a walk. BACK to business. I can't take a break - I need to stick to the plan. Now, I have the renewed mindset - I'm going to make it work this time.

    Yes. I also took a break and didn't like the results. I'm back for 8 days now and going strong. In hindsite, the break I took wasn't too bad. Gave me the energy and drive to get back into it compeletely.

    If you never leave, you don't have to start over.

    I am on the team, too. Back after being sick with an upper respiratory infection, daughter's wedding, and a week in Holland, and company for the weekend.

    Just know, we all get off the wagon but we also know how to get back on. Let's go team!

    It's nice to have company... and the encouragement - Wishing everyone new success. Today, I started the day of with pancakes, and have had to adjust things a bit - didn't leave a lot of calories for the rest of the day, however, did stay UNDER the 1200 - helped when I went for a walk for 50 minutes. Thanks all! Look forward to seeing pounds fall of and all your success stories...
