OK, my month-long experiment in not tracking during maintenance is going well. I'm up a bit this morning on the scale and now I'm flipped out because I've got my WW monthly weigh-in this weekend. ONO!
I don't think it's because of actual weight gain, I think it's due to eating a higher sodium diet than usual -- and not drinking enough water. This is what I get for being lazy this weekend and not going grocery shopping. I'm eating "convenience" foods (healthy convenience foods) but still higher in sodium than if I made myself a big pot of soup. And my soup is much better than anything I can buy. I've got some mad soup-making skills. Must make soup this weekend...
One month in maintenance and my size sixes still fit -- really well in fact. :-)
I think I'm ready to get these last few pounds off. My initial personal goal was to get to 2 pounds under my goal weight and I'm ready to track my food for another month to get it done. I know that I can maintain my weight. This last month has shown me that -- especially since this has been one hell of a stressful month:
Easter day poisoning My birthday My son's birthday My husband totalled his car
All of that happened in the last two weeks of the month and I survived. I didn't stress eat, even if I didn't exercise as much as I wantted to. I'm still struggling to get back to my pre-poisoning exercise routine.
And finally, I really want to get my weight down a few more pounds because I'm getting my tonsils out at the end of the month and I won't be able to exercise for two weeks afterwards. I don't think I've gone that long in years. OK, I'm ready to do it. I can do it! BREAK!
