Sometimes just getting back on the horse is enough to turn things around! Last week I was a little frustrated because I weighed in at 279, one pound MORE than the previous week. But, rather than dwell on it, I just centered myself, and stuck to the program: 2000 calories a day or less, and plenty of water. This weeks weigh-in: 272!

So, in the interest of sharing, here goes:
