Last weekend, I was doing really well with WW. I even got 2 stars on my calendar last Friday and Saturday. Then on Sunday, I got sick with the flu. It wasn't a really bad one, but I was queasy from last Saturday evening until just yesterday (6 days!). "Oh that's great!," you might think, "a chance to lose some weight quickly without really having to try!" But, OH NO.... not me.
This is what MY brain does... "OH! I have the flu! I'll probably lose weight this week cuz I won't feel like eating as much!... THIS IS MY CHANCE! This is my chance to eat fatty things!! Because I won't be eating as much, now I can eat cheese!!!! and other yummy goodies, like cookies, and tons and tons of cookie dough!!!! WEEHOO!!!"
Yep.
Sick, isn't it? (Pardon the pun).
Only me - Only I could use the flu as a chance to binge and end up gaining weight. I know that you will probably disagree with me and say I'm not alone, but I'm sure beating myself up over here.
Every day I swear that TOMORROW I'll be back on the bandwagon. My sister is coming to visit on Monday for a week, and she's good for me, WW speaking, ... well, really, she's good for me in EVERY way! ... so hopefully, this time next week, I'll have something good to report...

Yup, you're right. I am going to disagree with you. I'm the EXACT SAME WAY. Infact...proof? I had horrible, horrible morning sickness with Willem. It wasn't bad enough to not gain weight however as I was sick for 6 months and I gained 70 lbs!!! And no...those 70 lbs did not all come in 3 months.
My friend, keep at it. I'm struggling too...but as long as we're not gaining and not going back up to our high weights...we're winning. Ya, we're not hitting it out of the park or anything, but it could be worse.
I'm hoping for the day when I can rock at this weight loss thing again like my 1st 9 months of WW's. But until then, I'm content to just not gain...too much.
Colleen, Oh man...I can't sympathize because I am one who eats nothing when feeling quezy and in consequence do loose weight, but you know that is not good for me. All of us struggle, but I know you can turn this around, you are strong!! KEep going!
