Day/Weight/Comment
12/29- ? - still at home without my scale, still don't know weigh but pants still fit.
12/30 - ? - no scale, still at home
12/31 - ? - no scale, still at home
1/1 - ? - no scale, still at home
1/2 - 227.8 - moment of truth after 9 days at my parent's house with all the old habits that got me where I was, so naturally it's no shocker I'm up basically 9 pounds over the holidays (it's like a pound per day 0.0) but I didn't do much activity and didn't eat well so I'm not surprised. Some is likely water retention and honestly I'm not really bothered because I had a good time and I'm back in the city where I can go back to my usual routine. No regrets, I had an excellent holiday, now back to work.
1/3 - loss - What I like about this thread: posting everyday keeps me accountable and motivated and honestly I think is one reason I've been successful (holidays excluded). What effects me in a less than awesome way: people judging my weight loss. Solution: until I can get over myself, I'll just post a gain or loss in relation to the last day. Staying in the right mindset is important to this journey, actual weight will be posted when it makes sense for me.

12/29 - 146.20. Oops!!!! Went to the gym for an hours PT today, drinking plenty of water but have loads of goodies in the house as my daughters 10th birthday party disco dome and sleepover so going to try hard to resist.....

12/30 - Didn't weigh in - house full of 10 years old this morning post sleepover so by the time I remembered I had already eaten! Carb laden dinner last night though (turkey risotto) so probably wouldn't have been good reading! Ache a lot from gym session yesterday - only been off a week! Good food day planned today though and aiming to get back to drinking plenty of water .......

12/31 - 146.20 - so stayed the same ho hum..... Not been too off track but did eat some of my daughters birthday cake and need to get back to eating more fibre and drinking more water to get things moving I think as still feel so bloated! Out tonight to a friends for New Years Eve which will involve all round a table talking, drinking and knowing my friend way too much bad food so going to try and resist the worst of it ....

01/01 - 147.50 - not surprised as out until 5am at friends for New Year so still had a belly full of food at weigh in this morning! did go for a walk yesterday afternoon to ensure I made my 10,000 steps for the day though New Year and off we go. A good food day planned

01/02 - 145.9 - 1.6lbs down Back to work & school day - boo!!! But weight dropped after sensible day yesterday and a good day planned - water intake is back up and off to the gym tonight.

01/03 - 143.70 - wow 2.2lbs down overnight! But then I drank loads yesterday, went to the loo I don't know how many times and also had a tough HiiT session at the gym last night followed a walk home the long way to get my steps up to 10,000+. One thing I have learned from the daily weighing is how much my weight can vary just from even one evening of "over indulgence" and not tracking / counting let alone the Christmas period and how long it can take to go back down. But happy so far Just need to stay on track and keep drinking ......

01/04 -143lbs and another half a pound gone. Always a good weight loss week first week back after a holiday but going to enjoy it while it lasts as whatevers left at the end of the week I guess will pretty much be more true weight put on. Day 5 of making my 10,000+ steps yesterday too. So all good - at work and food all planned for the day and a PT gym session tonight so hopeful for tomorrows weigh in

01/05 -

01/06 - Will be away for weekend - taking my Brownies to Butlins for the weekend so will need to try and choose wisely from the food that is on offer (all canteen style food!!) and make sure I keep up water intake. Hoping for a reasonable amount of walking and also we'll be going swimming one day but unable to weigh again until Monday morning - the start of round 28.
01/07 - Butlins - unable to weigh

12/30….161
12/31….161
1/1….163…. celebrations are done…..now to start over and start eating clean again, start tracking again, and start some type of exercise. After I lost 10 pounds after I joined MFP on January 1st last year I was able to keep it off until recently. Need to get back to my original and want to lose another 10 and keep it off…..of course more weight would be great but I want to maintain it and change my lifestyle more permanently so that I don’t keep having to lose the same pounds over and over again!!
1/2 …..162 Back to work for me today.
