I was way up today, actually equal to my second "starting" weight of 250:
I guess that's not so surprising after eating so much chili yesterday. Even though I did eat a lot, I was still quite surprised that I was that high. I guess the chili must have had a decent amount of salt and I put on some water weight, at least that's what I'm telling myself.
So today I didn't eat anything. It was really hard, but I know it will be worth it. The family had rotisserie chicken, which is probably my all-time favorite comfort food, and has knocked me off the wagon many times. I was cutting up the chicken for my kids, and man I almost took a bite, but I didn't! Right now I'm not sure if I'm regretting it or happy I made the right choice, but deep down I know I did the right thing. I can get a rotisserie chicken any time, I don't have to have one tonight just because it was there.
So we'll see where I'm at tomorrow. I doubt I'll be back below the line since I drifted so far above it, but we'll see. Maybe tomorrow I'll just have a big <100 Calorie salad or something so I can actually have some food and still get myself back down to my goal.
I said in the beginning that this 50 pounds was going to be way harder than the first, since I am smaller and have a lower BMR, and so far it is proving to be the case. But I know I can do it, I will not give up, I will keep moving forward!
