My scale reads 161. So I am right where you are. Its frustrating because Ive seen goal weight so many times. At this point in my life Im trying to re-evaluate what goal weight really is for me. Right now Im just trying to work on better choices and to like myself at whatever size I'm at. xoxo Kristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14089744836066377107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-62482193530015539312017-01-18T07:50:17.277-05:002017-01-18T07:50:17.277-05:00Thanks Sus!

My goal weight is 140. I started the weight gain at Thanksgiving and then gained nine pounds over Christmas and New Years. I was really depressed over the holidays this year and boy did my weight reflect it. Before this, I was at my goal weight for about 4 years. I have lost about 3 pound and I already feel so much better.

It also has a place to track my glucose levels every day which is nice (I am type 2 diabetic, and plan not to be soon :)). Love the cat mug!

Even though I haven't officially hit my goal weight, I am at a weight where I feel happy and healthy. I'm trying to learn the balance where I can just eat without having to count calories and still be able to maintain where I am. I still weigh myself daily though.

(The whole gain weight when depression is worse and losing it when I feel better) I know my issues are related to the season and being cold outside. <br /><br />No motivation period and I too reach for food (usually a bowl of ice cream and a blanket in front of the TV) rather than exercise or leaving the house at all.<br /><br />Ms. Witihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00304175400543323958noreply@blogger.com
