Ok, something needs to change! I am back up to 171. I don't even want to get on the scale today. I seem to have lost control and cannot get my act together. I have seen this happen before. At this stage of the game I think I need to give it up. Don't worry--it's a temporary fix. I need to try to maintain for a while and then start dieting again. I think I get bored with dieting after 6 months and it just becomes work, so I plan to just maintain through the holidays and then kick back in for the new year.
Over all I am quite proud because I was up to 210 at one time. Even 171 is a great place to be after all this time. I will continue on the medi-fast for the next week so I can get back down into the 160's. After Thanksgiving I will try maintaining by eating only white meat and mostly veggies. I will avoid the snacking and definitely keep out the fast food. I do know I need to have fruit and veggie snacks or some of those 100 calorie packs of nuts. I think this will get me through the holidays and I will be ready once again in 2014 to hit the diet race.
you have to LIVE too Mary, go on! You're doing great!!! Enjoy the holidays, but sensibly.
