20 July 2019 - Diet Diary - I officially blew off two days. Started with just my appointment day, ate at Perkins and even watching the calorie numbers on the menu, it was nearly 800 calories. We then stopped on the way back home and got an ice cream. Supper turned into snacking and the best thing I can say about the day is I cut off eats at 8pm but by then the day had been officially declared a "cheat" day.
With evening also came feeling yuck (hope it wasn't an EdEarl hangover, did go well over calorie allowance) but more likely the hot, hot weather, short sleep and the procedure. I was just wiped out, too hot to go to bed so slept on the couch until 3am then went to bed. Felt better today but the rolled well into the day without recording anything and ate more than I should have. To top it off, serious salt jones going on. Bought some pumpkin seeds yesterday, salted in shell and kept going back for a few more today. WAY too much salt as well as food in general.
Tomorrow, will have to get back on track, no excuses and no nibbling. Not excited to see how the scales punish me for this. Makeup time.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I hope the scales will not upset you too much. No eating to cheer yourself up if things are bad! It sounds as if you have lost a bit of impetus since getting to your goal. That is presumably why so many of us just put the weight back on once we reach our target. Think about how much better you feel when you are doing well and know that you are in control.

It was not an unexpected gain so it wasn't too troubling. The ones that frustrate me are the bounces that come from no where, just suddenly, despite what I think is good control there are extra pounds. I at least like to know that the bounce was caused by my behavior, that means it was under my control and can be lost the same way. The bouo (bounces of unknown origin) happen unexpectedly and I just guess what caused them and don't feel like I have control because I don't know what I must do to avoid them happening again.
I remain determined to not allow the weight to come back so even though I will have these lapses and sometimes just planned "cheat" days when I go ahead and eat whatever I feel like. I know I have to return to control in very limited time.

Posted by OldMetalHeadThe hardest part for me is not falling back into old bad habits after meeting goals.

Posted by JonnaBononnaI had finally gotten back on track after gaining back most of the weight I lost a couple of years ago.
Posted by JurneeI have to say, as an overweight karate instructor, this is the one patch that I was ok with never getting.

Posted by DotLewis7 March 2020 - Diet Diary - Been quiet around here lately. I've not been on vacation, just keeping a low profile and trying to stay on top of things. Are those things incompatible?
