I'm pretty happy with that, feels great to break below 260! The hard work the last few days has paid off.
Today was a bit of a different story. I had planned to fast all day again today, since I am planning to go do dinner with my wife tomorrow for our anniversary, but that didn't work out. The kids were having nachos, and they looked really good, so I had a bite. That was a mistake. My son didn't eat his nachos, so I decided well I'll just eat that for dinner, and I ate that but didn't stop there unfortunately. I had a few more things, including a couple oreos and some red vines. Not quite as much as I ate the first day here, and not nearly as much as I would have eaten normally, but way more than I should have on my current plan. And I didn't get any pictures since it was more of a spontaneous thing.
So I'll probably be up a bit tomorrow from all of the salt and sugar. I'll not be giving up for sure. Never give up, keep moving forward! I know I can do this, and I can achieve my goal. I'm still planning to go do dinner with my wife tomorrow night, I'll just try to make it the single meal and I'll have to be a little more controlled than if I had done better today.
Also, I have been planning all along to do a 5 or 7 day fast during this journey. Well, we're almost to the end and I still haven't done that yet, so I'll probably do that when I get back home, so it will be pretty close to the last week of this challenge. I almost can't believe I've come this far. I know now it is possible, now I just need to keep going.
One thing that I think contributed to my gaining the weight back last time, and my keeping it on so long, is the thought that I lost it once, and it wasn't all that bad, I can lose it again if I need to. I'm not sure how to totally put that behind me, but I know I need to overcome that thought if I am going to keep the weight off this time.
