Holiday Gains

Nov-January explained=

November 10th meeting/weigh in= I told myself the first step was weighing in and attending a meeting. Weight was 245lbs. I had already went grocery shopping for the next week and told myself I would buy groceries for my diet after next weeks meeting.

November 17th, meeting/weigh in= Start day, oddly enough my weight stayed exactly the same as the week before: 245lbs.. Attended the meeting and went grocery shopping after.

November 24th meeting/weigh in= I had lost 3.4lbs!!!!!!! I really tried to watch my points and I tracked every meal. Confidence was restored!! I went grocery shopping again and planned a healthy week.

--4 days later----Thanksgiving-2x-----I didn't track-----I had a carb hangover the next day.

December 1st, meeting/weigh in= I gained almost 1/2 a lb. back :(    It could have been worse.

So I told myself I wasn't ready to go through the holidays on my first month out. I wimped out. I told myself AFTER THE HOLIDAYS I would come back strong.

December 8th-January=I didn't go to a meeting or weigh in at all in December. Bad idea!!   I was out of rehab and went out on a binder of fried food and holiday yumminess.

But something good did happen. My friend Spring decided she want to join and go to the meeting with me. yay!!! We made a plan to go on January 8th. The first Sunday of January.

January 8th meeting= ice storm; didn't make it- so we made a plan to start January 12th.

January 12th meeting/weigh in= Spring came with me. I weighed in at 247.2!!!! I gained 5.6lbs throughout the holidays!!!! I was could not believe it. I had expected some but jeeze...If Spring hadn't of gone with me that day I might have not been able to pick myself back up. She helped me get motivated for the week.

January 19th meeting/weigh in= I lost 1.4lbs. Ok, Im back on track. If  I loose at least .8lbs  at my next weigh in I will be out of the red. I don't like working backwards. Grrrr..... stupid Santa. bah humbug

Note to self= Go to my meetings during the holidays!!!!!!
