I have not been MOMD the past couple of weeks and was thinking of giving up. But then I think back to how bad I felt when I was at my heaviest weight. Even gaining back 10 -15 lbs now that I have lost weight reminds me that I don't want to go back there. I haven't weighed myself for a couple of weeks so I'm not even sure what the damage is. I'm going to get started easing up on the carbs this weekend and then get back into strict induction on Monday. I have a lot of gym equipment at home, but I think I'm going to join our local gym this month to get me going with the exercise. If I pay for it and go before I come home from work, I'll commit to it much better than thinking I will do it when I get home. We can pay by the month so I'm thinking if I can commit to a couple of months until the snow melts and can get outside, it will help me.
Why is this such a struggle?! Just when I think I have control, I totally blow it. I know I can do it as I've done it before. I started LC the day after Memorial Day last year and I lost 45 lbs by the end of September. We went on 5-6 bike trips for long weekends and a week or two at a time last summer with our group of friends and I didn't cheat once. I was down to my lowest weight at the end of September since having my kids and then started to periodically eat foods that weren't on plan, but I would normally get right back on it. Then the holidays came.
This should be the time of year when I can easily follow it as we don't have the social events and vacations going on, but I am having a really hard time. I just need to get a plan in place, make sure I have a lot of different food choices, exercise, and try to establish some goals or incentives.
I'm tired of losing and regaining the same 10-15 lbs!
