(Posting here for accountability)
I had hit my first big weight goal last month so I started doing maintenance calories (about a 400 calorie difference)
This caused a bit of a minor weight gain (about a half pound—nothing crazy besides my body just getting used to eating a bit more food than I had gotten acquainted with.)
Then I had some stuff happen and accidentally slipped into emotional eating (which the eating itself is a little funny because I’m allergic to chocolate and ate 2 bags of chocolate in a week—like why did I not choose something my body can process, like who chooses something they’re allergic to to cry over lolol) as well as eating fast food on V day weekend with my husband (my body does not process fast food well so it always causes a bit of gain for me)
Then I went back to the gym with weight lifting and biking last week. But since February 10th I’ve gained 5 pounds. I realize this isn’t an awfully big number, but that was 2 months progress for me. My measurements aren’t crazy different but my waist has gained an inch. Again not a crazy loss, but a months progress.
I still have about 6 months before I’m required to be at my big goal weight to ship off (which is about 15 pounds below where I am at this moment) but losing progress still hurts a bit.
Going to post weekly until I’m back to where I was last month so that I can make sure I’m not slipping into old habits again. Realize that it’s only going to take me about 1.5 months to get back there and that slow and steady wins the race, so trying to be positive :)
Hope everyone has a good day!
