Start Weight:	(17 Oct 07) 132.0 lb
Current Weight:	(26 Aug 08) 125.0 lb
Goal Weight:	120.0 lb

following: The South Beach Diet
performance: gaining 0.2 lb a week

I am a 38 year old mom of 11 & 9 year old boys, and a 3 year old girl. I have struggled to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight since my third. I began working out about a year ago, but didn't lose a pound until I really started to watch my diet carefully. I am in probably better shape than I have ever been in, and have set a goal of running a 5K this summer. I love to work out, but don't love to watch what I eat. I tried to do this alone for a long time, but now realize I need the support of others who understand this struggle. Here's to those last five pounds - what I feel are THE HARDEST to shed!!!

Restart
I would love to start over with you guys. Are you planning Phase 1 for 2 weeks? I will probably only do it for a week, because my hubby and I are going on a trip the second week and realistically there is no way I will stay on Phase 1. I will need to be on 2 for that. Let me know. We should add each other as buddies also, so we can keep each other posted as to how we are doing. I need to do this with others to keep me accountable. I find it really easy to slip a little here and there.

Question
Not only do I retain water, but I eat EVERYTHING in sight. I have NO control and want carbs and sweets. It actuallly makes me sick to think about how badly I eat. I usally go back down once it is over, but I have to really work at it the first week after. Have you noticed anything like that a week or so before you get your tom or during the first few days? It may have something to do with it.
