So I was doing very well yesterday - in the morning I was 147.2 with my cycle but then I had a stressful day and came home and my daughter wanted to go out to our favorite restaurant. Then my dad called me and surprised me and told me he was going to pay for my gym for the next two months. It really cheered me up and I went out with my daughter to eat. I did not stay on plan but did not go hog wild either. Then I said to myself I will eat the leftovers the next day and go back on plan right away.
I feel like I have failed this challenge but I am determined to continue with my journey and will post my weight tomorrow regardless how bad it is because it will hold me accountable.
Hugs.
Entropy

Welcome, Luckyk26!

Jschwab, normally I'd say congrats on the clothes not fitting, but I know you have that conference coming up that you need clothes for! I hate spending money on temporary clothes and hate getting rid of expensive things. Yesterday, I tossed out two bras with some regret because they're super expensive to replace.
