While I was beating myself up for regaining 40 pounds, I was eating toast, candy, breakfast cereal, and who knows what all? I kept putting off restarting because of this or that event that would interefere. It was never-ending, and while I was lamenting the 40 pounds, I packed on another 30. Why are human beings so stupid?

Now I just have to lose 30 pounds (not something you can do at the drop of a hat) to get back to the beginning of my trouble, when I just needed to lose 40 pounds.

I don't even feel up to using these numbers. My actual goal weight at the moment represents a loss of just 50 pounds. That's where I was, more or less, in the summer of 2005, before I really lost control of my eating completely.

If I can get back there, I think I will be able to imagine myself making it to my goal weight.

Here's to watching the scale move in the right direction!:cup: ]]> LCKaren http://lowcarbeating.com/low-carb-diet-support/blogs/lckaren/152-reminding-myself-all-my-own-fault.html http://lowcarbeating.com/low-carb-diet-support/blogs/lckaren/151-well-who-would-have-thought-possible.html Sun, 27 Jul 2008 07:47:42 GMT I was so chuffed by yesterday's weigh in, showing a loss in the middle of TOM, I almost didn't bother with the scale today. Because, well, I was most likely to see a bounce, water retention, etc...

So perhaps you can imagine my amazement to see an even 219? (down from 220.8 yesterday)

Hardly seems likely, but I'll take it, especially since that means I've reached my first mini-goal.

Yes!

I can do this.:samurai:I am a low-carb ninja. ]]> LCKaren http://lowcarbeating.com/low-carb-diet-support/blogs/lckaren/151-well-who-would-have-thought-possible.html http://lowcarbeating.com/low-carb-diet-support/blogs/lckaren/150-blog.html Sat, 26 Jul 2008 09:47:18 GMT It was a toss up whether to start a journal or a blog, and I'm still not sure which is the better way to go, but I thought I'd try this. Just looking for a place to journal my goals, frustrations, thought-processes, mind-games, and other weight-loss by-products.

After regaining all the weight I lost in 2003/04, I'm one month into getting things under control again, and *almost* to my first mini-goal.

Soldiering on...
