VSG Maintenance Group
Daily Maintenance Weigh In Saturday, November 30
AT this point, the scale should just be ONE piece of information. Measurements, clothing fit, body fat % are all much more important - especially if you're exercising regularly. You must be doing well - don't worry on the poundage.
Over the summer I gained almost 10 lbs, but dropped body fat. I understand 100% the conflicting feelings... but you can't argue with those numbers! Great job.

Morning all:
I hear ya!
Lost it yesterday with food and am up 4, read it!! 4 pounds. Not bad food but just too dang much and too late. I normally do not eat supper at 10pm. With too much salt as the backs of my eyes are feeling it. Can I blame the guests? My jeans could hardly get them up and normally they are a big baggy.
Back at it today. Guests are going.
Have a good day everyone. ( ( nearly didn't post because of the shame ( 11 pounds above goal. am not happy ) but if I don't post then it doesn't matter. Right??? ) )
Good on you for posting despite feeling shame. This is a no judgement zone...

Sounds like salt and carb bloat so no real damage done/). Sucks when we falter, but just get back to what you were doing before yesterday and everything will be fine. No need to 'make up for it' but always a great idea to reflect on what you might do differently next time. This is temporary - clean slate today!!

I haven't been around on here much lately, but have I mentioned you maintenance folks are my sanity? I hate to say it but I'm glad I'm not the only one struggling with my weight today. Thanks for the company.
103.6 lbs. Two words folks: maintenance sucks.
Here's to fighting the good fight!

118.2 today, three pounds down from yesterday. which reflects dialing back the carbs to offset carb bloat. I'm feeling good about that.
