Day 97 - Back to square one

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!
