I've really let myself go. I have gained ALL the weight back. As a matter of fact, I had deja vu last weekend while at my husband's uncle's funeral. I was wearing the black pants that I mentioned in my Spark People post in August 2009, and they were once again way too tight to be comfortable in. So the first thing I did when I got home was weigh myself. I weighed in at 180.5. Two years later and all my work I did to lose 35 pounds is gone! I'm so disappointed in myself.
I have not started counting calories again, but I have been purposely trying to eat a little less. I weighed in at 174.5 this morning, so I'm making some progress already. Also, when ever we go to visit my husband's family I tend to gain some water weight. We usually spend a few days there since it's over a 4 hour drive. But that usually means we stop for salty fast food on the way there and back. Also, we usually eat out sometime during the weekend. This might be a little TMI, but I usually am a little constipated whenever I visit, maybe because my subconscious is not as comfortable with me doing number 2 in someone else's house. So after just getting back to my routine for a couple days, I was at 174.5 by Tuesday and have been around that number each day since.
So I was already trying to motivate myself to eat less this week and then on Wednesday I was asked to be the matron of honor at my sister's wedding! Now I have something to really get me motivated to lose weight again. The only problem is the wedding isn't until October 2012, so I don't feel a sense of urgency yet. I feel like I'll just gain back any weight I lose now.
