Day 267 - WTF????

Now I feel like I'm being punished way far after the fact. Seriously, I would have understood if the scale was saying this a few days ago when I first looked, but the fact that it's going UP since I started limiting calories again is really just pissing me off. Especially since I went for a run yesterday. Effing scale bastard!

Day 264

Wow. I have NO IDEA how I did so poorly. I really didn't intend to. It's like... I had breakfast, and then there wasn't anything for lunch so I made a Caribbean egg sandwich on a cheese bagel and it all went to hell. Oh yeah, and then there were peanut butter cups. And red wine. And then somehow the eggnogg and vodka and hot toddy (with rum) just happened. I seemed to think I wasn't "snacking" but add those drinks up and it's about as much as the chocolate. :(
