I think you are doing the right thing by "weighing in" here on the Fat Secret. That act puts a written record down in black and white - or in this case - blue and white - for you to see with your own eyes. In this way, the weight is something visual and literal upon which to act. Once you get your food intake whittled down a bit here and there on the edges I bet you will see a down arrow on your chart. The exercise has got to help too! Keep the faith!

You'll be fine and I am sure after the new year that will come off. Then it's MUST time ok?

You're not alone. I'm staying off that scale also. I think I'll wait until after new year, then it's a MUST.

I just talked to ImLuuvd and I have decided we have both have scales that have a "delayed action" within them... maybe they are just kind machines that want to give us the benefit of a doubt and a chance to rectify our mistakes and bad choices. Seems to be that our scales wait about four days, allowing us to abuse our system before blowing the whistle on us. So now... if I am very very good, maybe it will move back down in the same amount of time. Im trying to be very very good but I do have a party at my house tomorrow. I am not feeling very strong about it.. my friends seem to lead me astray easily. I also know this is the last party... Jan 1st will be kick into gear and reach goal time!

Good for you, stepping on the scale. It's easier to fight the demon you can see than the one you can't! Good luck getting that number back down - I know you can do it!

Kudos to you for posting your current weight. I like your Dr's. 3 day weight story. No worries, I'm sure it'll go back down soon. Keep up w/all that great exercise!

Good for you to weigh in and take that challenge on. I know you can get this back down soon. I agree that you should enjoy your party tomorrow. I find that drinking sparkling water in a fancy glass helps me be festive and limit my alcohol intake at social events. The party snacks are still tempting, but if I'm full of good food beforehand it's easier to not get carried away. Maybe that will be helpful for you too? If I could only follow my own advice... ;-)

thanks everyone. Herbie the best i ever did at a party was when i did exactly what you said, I ate sensible and healthy that day of the party and I drank a V8 juice right before leaving for the party. At the party I nursed my champagne so that when the hostess came around filling glasses.. mine was still half full. Best I ever did at a party.
Tonight party is at my house.

Just a reminder to let us all know how your party goes tonight! I will be thinking about you and yours! Happy New Year!

I'm sure that once you get back into eating more "normally" again that little excess will just fall off. I will keep my fingers crossed for you for that! Hope you have a really nice time at your party tonight and Happy New Year to you!! :o)

I hope the party last night was wonderful and you sent the unwise choices of the last week packing! Good for you to face the scale and the music. We all know that we are not going to avoid all those foods we have grown to love forever. If we are making wise choices 99% of the time, we are enjoying the fruits of all of our labor once in a while. This cruise to me is about reminding ourselves through all the temptations about what we want to be, where we are going, and getting us back on track.
You are still doing awesome, we knew the last 6 weeks would be tough, busy and we all joined this challenge to end the holiday season with a loss, or at the very least, minimal gain. You've been doing great and now that we're into a new year, you'll get right back on track, I know it. =)
