I saw my nutritionist this afternoon. The last time I had seen her was a week before Thanksgiving. I have really been eating badly, what with family and friends over for the holidays and junk food when we didn't eat at home, etc. I was even back to drinking regular soft-drinks and snacking at night. I really expected the worst today.

From the week before Thanksgiving to today I lost another 5.5lbs. That puts me at 47lbs lost since August 1st. At one point I had hoped to lose 50lbs in 5 months but since I took advantage of the holidays feasts I knew that wasn't going to happen. But to lose 5.5lbs since before Thanksgiving boggles my mind.

I will be getting back on my meal plan and adding exercise. In today's meeting I laid out some night-time activities so I don't find myself snacking. And I wrote down some goals for the next three weeks. I need to see my regular doc as I've been feeling dizzy and am having headaches and feeling anxious or scared or some emotion I can't identify. Either my meds need to be adjusted since I've lost weight or when I started eating badly again it through my chemicals out of balance. Regardless I need to get things checked out.

I hope others post how they've done over the holidays.
