21 July 2019 - Diet Diary - Did better today, curtailed the snacking and kept track of everything. Didn't aim too high, given the past 2 days and was satisfied with my finish at 1127. Had kind of planned for 1100 limit but thought about 1200 so this was a good compromise. Tomorrow will shoot for 1100 and may start the day with a kale smoothie. Haven't made one lately and I have a ton of kale right now.
Scales did punish me but less than a 2 pound bounce and the last one, a bounce of unknown origin, was more than that and I didn't even enjoy it. At least this time, while munching away, I thought, "You KNOW you will pay for this!" Then decided if I was paying anyway, might as well have fun. This is kind of how it will be long term I think.
When I did maintenance before I would do well some days, not so much the next then when the scales bounced up, would tighten the limits for a few days to get back down. These "off" days are a quick lesson in why I can never stop being vigilant. The old habits are right there, just below the surface, waiting to rear up and snatch me back to the dark side. Noooooooooooo! I won't go!

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?
