week 9...bummer

well...i had my first significant gain. I knew it was coming and I can't say I'm all that disappointed. With the holidays almost over and having not yet really gotten the best of me I almost felt like I had to splurge and take advantage of the season or I would end up spiraling out of control for a while. So I ate. I started the week off good, over my daily points but tracking and taking responsibility for my choices and I had every intention of remaining within my weekly points. But after about 3 days...I let go.

I find it really hard to stay on plan when Robbie and I are both home. With New Years Eve I took 2 days of vacation so I had a 5 day weekend, 3 days of which the hubs was around too. That made things so hard! I had no routine and too many opportunities to make poor choices. And boy did I...but I enjoyed it. Went to my meeting Monday to face the music telling myself as long as I didn't gain more than 2 pounds I would be happy. Well, I gained 2.2 and I can't say I'm happy but I'm definitely not beating myself up over it. It is disappointing but it happened so time to move forward.

I am however a little further from my next mini goal of 15 pounds lost than I was a week ago :( Now instead of just 1 pound to go I have 3.2...Bummer.
