Star...Heh, I did the same thing earlier this year. Started eating like a "normal" person, and gained 9 pounds. Bagels were part of my problem, too! Occasional treats aren't the problem, IMO. It's the consistency of the bagels, pita, and "only" walking that does it. That's what happened to me, too. Stopped training for a long race, got lax about working out, stopped logging my food, and BAM - on came the pounds. <BR/><BR/>Looking forward to reading about you kicking those pounds to the curb.Laura Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07916626845812229646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31480408.post-42974207489106914232008-08-27T10:06:00.000-04:002008-08-27T10:06:00.000-04:00Better that you figured it out at 9.2 vs 92 :)Better that you figured it out at 9.2 vs 92 :)mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16967370079264918525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31480408.post-84835532832735799922008-08-25T22:55:00.000-04:002008-08-25T22:55:00.000-04:00The important thing is that you've caught it befor...The important thing is that you've caught it before you hit double digits. It can be hard to face the scale, but it was wonderful that you did so you can take care of it. <BR/><BR/>One day at a time is all it takes!!! :) YOU CAN DO IT...AGAIN!!!! :)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12218693906162990875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31480408.post-83448209090338194112008-08-25T12:27:00.000-04:002008-08-25T12:27:00.000-04:00hey there~your post is like a wake-up call to me b...hey there~<BR/><BR/>your post is like a wake-up call to me because i've been 'feeling' the same way... though my clothes fit, they may not be fitting like they were in may, so that's a bit disconcerting... BUT i'm still refusing to let the scale tell me how i'm feeling about myself... :op <BR/><BR/>i think you have the right attitude about the gain and though the number may seem big - like you said, you know what you have to do in order to correct that... i think that's the hardest battle - knowing something and doing something...<BR/><BR/>either way, i'm with ya babe... we'll be okay regardless... :o)JODIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02805275154320491839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31480408.post-65862958918506618362008-08-25T06:38:00.000-04:002008-08-25T06:38:00.000-04:00congrats on catching yourself so quickly 10 pounds...congrats on catching yourself so quickly 10 pounds and under is a very good catch. You can see how quickly it might be 20 pounds! I often wonder/worry about the people that "use" how their clothes fit as their "catch". Because I think it can be as much as 20 pounds before it really kicks in and we realize something is not working.<BR/><BR/>In my opinion either <BR/>1. the food/exercise has to be VERY consistent (I mean "spot on")<BR/>2. the scale must be checked at least once a week.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05452333714845476967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31480408.post-90134957338925544602008-08-24T02:05:00.000-04:002008-08-24T02:05:00.000-04:00You can lose those 9 pounds!
