I have the same problem at night, and I know it can be a 'boredom' or 'emotional-eating' thing.

Then I have less actual…

Congrats on the 30 pounds! I've also lost 30 (well ... had lost 30 ... now I'm back to 28 after the holidays), and I need to lose another 70.

Girls, I have been in a terrible slide for the last month and it is really showing on the scale. I'm up even more today than when I weighed in last Friday. I've GOT to get a handle on my eating. One positive - I am easing back into my exercise routine - went to step this morning even though I was really tired.
