I doubt it was the cabbage but more so the corned beef.... to make that they use a salt brine which means you probably injested much more sodium then usual

Its ok Dianna - We still luv ya. You'll get back into it Im sure. Im having a really hard time not cheating for some reason yesterday...and today it seems too. I managed through it yesterday, even though hubby kept wanting to cheat. Its nothing specific that I want, I just seem to want EVERYTHING!!!! Banannas, cookies, pizza, cereal, grilled cheese - arg.

I have went up 2lbs for no reason at all. I dont REALLY believe I went up..but the scale says I did (denial ). Im not going to take an "official" weight until Friday. Hopefully it will be back down then. I hate the scale, I should stop doing it I know but I cant help it. It discourages me so much sometimes. If I didnt have that no cheat challenge I would have cheated no doubt. I hope my commitment to it is strong enough to tackle today too.

Wish me luck!

Hey all, just adding in my gain "officially" since it hasn't gone away yet. On a better note, the fam and I (plus MIL of course) went to Steak 'n Shake which is a major fave of MIL's since Oregon doesn't have Steak 'n Shake. I was VERY good: had a triple steakburger sans bun, side salad, cottage cheese, and caffeine free Diet Coke. It helped that everybody ordered strawberry milkshakes since I really only crave the chocolate ones, LOL! Haven't been able to exercise much, but I'm going to try to fit it in tonight.

GO EGGZ!!

I know this sounds so selfish, but I feel better not being the only one who gained

I'm going back on strict induction tomorrow to hopefully get that 8lb woosh in a week I got last time.

Keep it up ladies. Or, should I say, down?

I find that I crave strange stuff when I'm dieting. (Yes I still consider eating on plan dieting. It is a diet.... maybe a forever one but still a diet) Like today I'm craving Kraft Mac and Cheese! LOL! Usually it's stuff that I never ate a lot of in the first place. Weird. But I'm one of those strange people who love Kraft Mac and Cheese. LOL!
Good thing I weigh tomorrow night... that's keeping me honest!

mwrobe1.... YAY on the lost pounds. And don't the looser clothes feel better?!

nosuga4me... 3 lbs!!! WTG!!!

dianna9234... Stop beating yourself up. You're only allowed to do that for a couple days. You're back eating right again now. Focus on that!

southbel... Keep posting whenever you have a loss! It feels good! GO EGGZ!

Fauna... 2 days in a row of exercise!!! Excellent. I find once I get started I can continue the daily exercise. But once I miss a couple days or a week it's hard to get back to. But I need the exercise to move my weight in the rigth direction.

LiveWell... fingers crossed that Friday's weight will be good. The scale fluctuates so much you'll probably be just fine! I used to weigh daily but was obsessing over the number. Had to break that habit! Now step away from the cookies! LOL!

jazzfan... YUM Steak and Shake. We don't have those here either. I love them!!! Nice job on staying LC!

.muse.... Good luck with induction!!! You CAN do it!

mwrobe1... LOL!!!

GO EGGZ!!!

Good luck to all the losers and happy thoughts to the uppers? The scale will go down again. I know if feels awful when it goes up instead of down. I have been there several times myself. I am still trying to figure out what works and what doesn't because sometimes I think I have done great and up it goes and other times it goes down and I spent the night eating macadamia nuts like I would never see them again...

I just tried on my size 20 jeans, and they fit!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the size I was wearing when I got pregnant in '03. To be perfectly honest, I will take fitting into smaller clothes any day over weight loss. I realize that I have to lose weight to get into the smaller clothes. But I think y'all realize what I mean. Especially when you are losing weight so slowly.

I had a brain fart when I read this. I searched through previous posts to see if muse's DH or BF name was tom. Then all of a sudden a went off. Well that is my stupid moment of the day I had to share.
