I just got home from Weight Watchers and once again I’m not happy. I gained another 2.8 lbs. I’m now at a total of 58 lbs. lost. Sounds great except at one point I was at 90 lbs. total lost. (sigh)
You may recall that I gave all my bigger clothes to Goodwill and had bought inexpensive clothing that fit better as I continued to lose. The new clothes all felt better and looked better, however, that’s not true anymore. I have many shirts that don’t fit me any longer because they are too small. I can still wear all my pants and shorts, but they are getting tight.
Late night eating is one of my big challenges and someone at the meeting today suggested putting a chair in front of the kitchen to tell your brain the kitchen is closed. Someone else suggested having a cup of hot herbal tea to tell your brain the same thing. There were other suggestions, but those are the two simple ones that I am going to try.
The other positive note is since I dropped my class at college I now have no classes until February. This makes me very excited. I now have plenty of time to take my daily beach walks again. This will also keep me out of the house, which means I won’t be sitting around snacking all day.
So, yes, I did gain again today, yet, I feel very positive about future success. I refuse to go back to Goodwill and buy my old clothing back.
