I was just going through my old journal entries from last January and guess how much I gained over the holidays?? "6-8 lbs." See a pattern here??? Why do I keep gaining and losing this same amount over and over??

I spent a bit of time journaling today, and it really helped. I'm going to use it more when I want to eat as a distraction. Usually, I want to eat because I'm ticked about something. This way, I can sort out the issue and hopefully not gain weight. Well, it's worth a try, right?

Quinn, 2 pounds by Friday? That's great... unless you are planning on a rough weekend. That a funny story about your daughters date. How long are you giving yourself to take off what you've gained?

Reminds me of the definition of insanity...doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results. I learn lessons really well in other areas of my life, but this one eats my lunch, too.

Very funny story about your daughter :). I'm sure it was tremendously entertaining watching it all unfold; I don't know how you kept a straight face!

...says Mr. 5 Pounds by Friday ;).

I gotta keep up; I'm not going to be the slacker here!

My goal is to have the weight off by November 28th, three weeks from today, which is ambitious considering Thanksgiving is in there. :eek: That's 2.4 lbs per week which will be tough, but I think I can do it if I stay focused this time.

The only way I could lose 5 lbs. by Friday would be to cut off my arm! LOL

This weekend should be easier to stay in line because we play a Monday night game on the 14th, so no Sunday football munchies! :o

I can't do it by Friday. Going to need the full week.

Quinn, what... No colors?
