Well, I want to post the good and the "bad" to show people that we all go through ups and downs. Keeping the weight off is just as hard as losing it if not more! It's so easy to let yourself relax and get more lenient when you get to the point where you are happy. I just say "Oh, a couple cookies won't hurt" then maybe a bad meal or two then all of a sudden I am not packing my lunches for work or preparing my meals ahead of time leaving me in a pinch, which we all know is never a good thing. I give soooo much credit to Bonnie for really commiting to her diet!!! Her results are beyond awesome!! Is true life does get in the way. We moved into a bigger house and that did set us back some financially so I wasn't buying my special food. We are catching up now so I think it's doable again. Yes, I set high standards for myself. Sometimes I have to remember I am not 25 anymore. 
It is very difficult to maintain such standards with a lifestyle like mine (family, full-time job) but I will sure try but not be too hard on myself for my failings. Thank you again, Boss!! (((hugs)))Fygle...thanks for the welcome back!!
Is nice to know you are all here for me through no matter what!
...gotta focus on the positive.
