Sent too soon. I know I gained over the weekend (food, beer, etc.), it's my TOM and I know my brain couldn't handle the scale today. Emotional hot mess? Ding, ding, ding!

Great job everyone! I promise, I'll be back next week with a vengeance.

We have these days! Don't let it get you down this is our journey. I had to fess up last week with a no loss for the week before.

Oh and my TOM "that sneaky fucked" caught me 4 days ago and I ate outta my plan for a day or 2. seen the scale go up 2 pounds for the first time and about puked on myself. GRRRHHH but no reason to dwell on the slip just time to move on and keep striving for better next time!

Will look forward to hearing your success next week

I was down to 178.6 when I started and I bounced (or floated on tequila up to 183 after Thanksgiving) just grateful to be ready to break 180 AGAIN! GW 167 I must have been drunk when I joined!! Jk.
