Non-Food Rewards Are So Much Less Damaging...

and I know this to be true...

and yet... after hitting my 10% and then going into the next decade... I said this weekend, eh, I deserve some good food.  And so I did, Chinese on Friday (I got a veggie dish, but let's face it, even the veggies are waaaaaaaay too high in sodium and fat!), I had some taco cabana on Saturday... and then on Monday, I baked soda bread for St. Pat's day for my office... and enjoyed a few too many pieces.  On top of that, no "real" exercise this weekend... and not enough water. 

I wasn't suprised when I stepped on the scale this morning and saw 161... back up 2 lbs and returning to the decade I fought so hard to leave. 

That said, I really do believe that the progress I've made isn't lost.  I also am 100% back on track as of this morning... and think that those pesky two pounds will be gone very soon.

Honestly, I'm not even going to modify my weight on ep yet... I'm going to wait a day or two to see which way it goes.  If it stays, I'll change my weight to 161.  If it goes back down to where it was, I'll leave it as is.

I'm posting this as a reminder to myself the next time I take a weekend off. I can do it, but there are repercussions!!!

Tonight, I'm going to do my Fat Free Yoga dvd and do my Lateral Thigh Trainer steps while I watch Biggest Loser.

Hi

Thanks for the comments - that helped.  Although hubby did look over, asked what was wrong and then told me to stop taking the Pill, and that he'd have the snip.  No!!

Sorry to hear you've suffered too - I'm glad someone's found out what the cause is, even if it's not a fool-proof result.

I might give Pro-Activ a try - I've tried every other potion known to man!

More than likely those 2 lbs is just water weight. Whenever I consume beer it's up by about 2 lbs. And then it goes back down within a few days. Back down to what it was at.

I've never had soda bread before.

Isn't it amazing...

how slow it is to take off and yet how quickly it comes back on?  So, not fair!  Hang in there, you're doing just fine
