Combatting Regain. . . what are you doing?
Had a wonderful mini-vacation with my daughters and the older grandchildren that live in Florida, mostly we just hung out as my reason for being there was mostly about lending moral support for my older daughter who is going through some tough times, and while I wanted to take them away for the weekend, it was more important to make sure my older daughter's vehicle was safe and stays in good condition, via new tires, brakes, belts and wheel alignment and then we shopped for a new vehicle for my younger daughter so she could give her stepmom her 2004 car. We did go to the beach one day, where I played in the surf with my grandson and the rest of the time we just vegged ou****ching the big news down in the area of where she lives, the Casey Anthony trial, such a sad situation. . .
So while I did not get to the gym, I did a lot of walking, played in the surf and on most days I ate the way I'm supposed to and when I got on the scale this morning the truth was there, no gain, no loss and since I got home so late last night, not able to fit the gym in today, way too tired, but tomorrow I will get myself back in there and doing what I know to work.
That's how I'm combatting my regain, by making healthy choices, logging everything I eat, getting in my decaf fluids, vitamins and incorporating some form of physical activity as part of my everyday life.
Have a good day!

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

I LOVE ZUMBA, unfortunately, I cannot afford the classes right now as well as the fact they start too late for me, as when I do them I am energized for hours aftewards and the classes I used to take are at 8 p.m. I hope to find some earlier ones elsewhere in the fall, as in the summer I happy to do my current routine. . . great workout and just in case you feel you can't do the moves others around you can, the important thing is to continue to move, doing the best you can, wear a good supportive shoe and dance your fat away. . . there is also a ZUMBA gold for us wonderful over 50 set if you can find it, or feel that it would be better suited to you, but I doubt it will kill you and more than likely you will really enjoy it, it is a lot of fun. . . I might even invest in the cds and do it at home, but I think half the fun is doing it with others. . .

Went to Louisiana and hubby came along. Not a good thing for my food plan. He like to tool around all day so we are never near home at meal time and that means RESTAURANTS. I made the best choices available and watched portions but still too much hidden fat and sugar. My recent 20 pound lost just suffered a 2 pound regain. Back on the right track today and hopefully I loose them this week. C'est la vie.
