Monday Weigh In: Heading the Wrong Direction

Hi all! I had such good intentions of writing up several blog posts over the weekend so I'd have plenty to share this week and of course I didn't. I think the fall allergy season is upon us because I spent most of yesterday feeling pretty groggy! So we'll see how it goes with blogging this week :)

Anyway, the main subject of this post is the Monday weigh-in, which I am not thrilled about. My weight this morning was 134.6 - thats 4lbs heavier than my lowest! In my mind I had kind of established 135 as my "panic weight" since of course there are normal fluctuations during the week, but this time its been persisting up near 134 so I guess it is real.

Although disappointing, I'm not really surprised because I haven't been eating well recently at all. It's kind of funny, I've always heard people say that once you stop eating sweets (or just reduce them by a lot), you don't really crave them anymore, and I've always said that definitely wasn't true for me. Turns out I think it was, and I just didn't realize it. I mean, I never got to the point where I didn't crave sweets at all, but now that I've been eating them more again recently, I crave them allllll the time. I didn't know how good I had it! So this week's focus will be on making sure I have healthy low cal snacks available. Recently I've been planning my meals but not my snacks, which I am now realizing was a big part of my success earlier this year! We're going grocery shopping tonight so hopefully I can get things back on track this week...
