I can't call these weekly weigh ins anymore. Afer several years of dieting now, weekly updates seem a bit unnecessary. The last several weeks have gone by without the support of a Weight Watchers group. I've losely tracked the points in my food, on a few very depressed days indulged in a nasty binge, then regrouped and got my food discipline back in place. My binge and a few days of painful fluid retention that my prescription diuretics wouldn't help caused a ten pound gain. Ten pounds in less then two weeks. How fast my body gains weight always surprises me. Getting back on the good food wagon wasn't easy. I didn't want good nutritious vegetables. I was still craving pizza and nachos with spicy salsa, cool guacamole and sour cream. However, I was out of balance. I'd indulged in the fatty foods I'd been craving and it was time to bring more fruits and veggies back. It worked. This morning when I weighed in, I was at 247.4, only four tenths of a pound more than I was three weeks ago. While it is a gain, I'm proud. Having a binge is a human behavior. It's not the end all and be all of dieting bad behavior. It's a slip up, and I made sure that I didn't stay down. That's why I'm proud.
