I got on the scale 2 days ago...up 4 lbs in my week of vacation! Up half an inch on my waist as well.....
I could beat myself up now.... But will that help???
I looked at things before I left, "decided" to stay on plan while gone...but didn't. Maybe it wasn't realistic for me to expect that of myself at this baby stage in my recovery from my overeating addiction...
Right Now, I'm going to be glad I didn't gain more than I did and just get back on track!
Yesterday's food:
breakfast............walnuts............170
lunch................hot dog................430
snack................dried fruit...........250
snack...............walnuts...............170
dinner..........,,,..,.chili..................350
......................cornbread.............350
total.......1760 YAY!

Hi Truth!
Please don't beat yourself up over a 4 lb. gain over a vacation! EVERYONE gains over a vacation!

You are absolutely right, I think when we guilt ourselves over these little slip-ups, we end up sabotaging ourselves even further. So much better and positive to just dust off and get back in there:) I'm there with you, gained back a couple pounds over the past several days...but am still trying, keeping those goals in mind. Enjoy your Monday.

YOu've done really well to get your eating back on track after the vacation gain. I am still struggling to get on track. Can't seem to get motivated. Kudos to you for being able to get things back in control. Great job!

I totally agree with everyone else... the hardest time is vacation time... most of the rest of the time we can manage to keep things under some control... but vacation time is almost impossible, even with the best of intentions... so don't beat yourself up truthseeker... we have all been there.... it's such a downer though... the only thing you can do is get back on track and re focus on your goal... Your doing great so keep up the good work... oh and i agree with silkmom... more vegies would be good... Big hugs
