Daily Maintenance Weigh In - Wednesday January 16, 2013

105.2 today, this works.

100.8.

On a whim, I signed up for a class at my local college.  ll of a sudden my life is full of deadlines from both work and school!  I need to calm myself down and make a plan for the day.  All will be done in due time.  Ommmm.......

PS - Is anyone else having a hard time correcting their posts when using an IPad?  For some reason, I can't go back and fix typos.

The editor on here sucks from an iPad.  When I post from mine it goes all buggy - sometimes forcing me to post to see all of my text.

Ugh...nasty.  I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one having problems.  

I use my Ipad on here almost always and it is very problematic  on this site.

Yes, I checked with some IT folks and they say the Ipad just doesn't play nicely with others on some sites.  It's too bad because it's such a handy thing.

Today's weight 134.4

Sorry. Terrible, horrible, no good, very bad and extremely crazy day. This too shall pass.

180 this morning. This weight is at the top of my comfort zone, and I prefer if a little lower. I'm working on gearing myself up to get back into loss mode from maintenance mode. In the past, planning to lose weight has many times been a trigger for overeating and gaining more weight. I am finding that I've been getting hungrier lately. The hunger feels like true physical hunger, but am I deluding myself and it's really head hunger? My weight the past few days has been at the top of where I'm comfortable. I need to look more closely at my intake and determine what I can do differently. Perhaps I just need to continue with maintaining until I am completely ready to lose again -not sure what to do, except not to overeat and regain weight. I need to continue to sort through feelings and thoughts. This being diligent and fully honest is a b***h! LOL Seriously though, it is the only way to go at this point, and I'm determined to keep at it.

YAY Judy!  That's awesome!  What a feeling it must be.  I have been within 4-5 lbs of my goal for 4-5 months now so I am not sure I will ever get there but I'm so close.

I got on the scale this morning and almost fainted when I saw I was up a little over 3 pounds to 167.6.  How does that happen.  I had a 1350ish calorie day yesterday so it sure wasn't that.  I feel like I might be fighting something.  Does that cause water retention?  HELP!?

Lots of things can cause water retention. I gain whenever I have a TOM (very sporadic for my menopausal self) no matter how good I am.

You did NOT gain 3 lbs in a day. Honest. Push fluids and give it a few days to come off.
