Gained 9 pounds, I coming back and getting on track!

[helenk]

Well after taking our cruise in April I had gained 4 pounds, I thought I could lose it on my own...........not, in fact I gained another 5.
I just went in and took out my 35 pounds lost clippie and exchanged it for a 25 pound one. I did that because need to be honest to myself.
I am going back to the initial stage of the South Beach Diet, I went to curves today and I am going to start walking in the evening.
I just booked a trip for myself to WDW in July, if I do not get back to walking now I will be so tired walking in the parks.
It is so easy to back slide, but I'm glad I caught myelf now. Hopefully posting on the WISH board will get me back on track.

helenk, you know you are welcomed back. Come back and see us on the SBD thread!

Thank you for your encouragement.
Sometimes it seems so unfair that we have to work so hard to lose the weight and keep it off. It is so easy to gain it back.
I have lost a total of 60 pounds over the last 2 years, and I'm glad that I stopped myself now before gaining more back. I need to lose those 9 that I gained...plus about 20 more so it really is a struggle.

The 9 pounds will be off in no time! I've just come back to WISH after joining WW's last week. This morning, I am happy to say, I was down 14 pounds!! :flower:
