Yep, I’m pretty much at a standstill. I have battled since January and I have just only lost 20 lbs., 5 of those pounds keep coming and going. I am not giving up but I am frustrated. But, I will soon be working from home as Kaiser has run out of office space. I can get more done at home anyway. Therefore, no more goodies on an almost daiiy basis. I can get more in a routine of cooking something healthy for breakfast and lunch without involving fast food or food on the run. This will be good. I can also break when I want and I will have a 12 hour window to get my work done. I can make time for a workout in the middle of the day and go for “doggy walks”. I think things will go a little better. I’ve really been almost embarassed to weigh in at Weight Watchers because nothing ever happens lately except to lose 5 lbs., gain 5 lbs. lose gain, etc. My group leader is great and they never make me feel bad, however, it is embarassing. She always tells me to not give up and that we are at a different place in our lives than we were when the pounds came off very easily. So…. onward, and I hope everyone will come back for encouragement and continue. We can do it, I’m sure. Summer is a hard time because of all the activities, winter is hard because of the holidays… there will always be something I suppose so we just have to figure out what works best for us.

Hi Sue! It’s nice to see you again!!
Working from home is definitely going to shake things up for you! Do you know when that’s going to happen?
Those 5 pounds that come and go - when they leave you they find me, you know. I keep sending them back. Sorry about that. I’ll try to be better, too! :shame:
:hug:

Hey Sue….same story for me. I started in January and then gained everything back. I’m doing great now and highly motivated.
I’m into carb cycling (similiar to the Zone) This girl loves her carb so it is working well for me. I also have my first grandchild coming in January so want to lose as much weight as possible by then.
I’ll gladly be your cheerleader! :veggiedance:
