I have been losing and regaining the same 3 or so pounds for the last few weeks. Not really getting anywhere. Feeling kind of down about it. Then today, I went to my kids' school to pick them up from their after-school program. On my way out, I ran into a lady who cleans at the school in the afternoons. She has been there for years, but I hadn't seen her in awhile, because my husband picks up our youngest two most days.

She stopped me and asked me about my weight loss and...well, it was wonderful. I still have another 25-30 lbs I would like to ultimately lose, but it was so DELICIOUS to hear her say things like,"You look absolutely beautiful!" And telling me that I didn't need to lose any more weight. Not true, I do, but it still made me smile.

Pizza. I have decided that it is EVIL and the food version of crack-cocaine/heroin/meth to the person who is trying to eat healthy and keep calories/fat/carbs in check.

Sundays are my freebie days, and so last Sunday I indulged with the fam in pizza (among other things). I gained 4 pounds from my Saturday weigh-in to Monday. Then, on my supposed-to-be-back-on-track Monday, there was that leftover pizza still in the fridge. Calling me. Saying, "You know you want me. You can have. Just. One. Slice. Maybe just 1/2 a slice. That's it. 1/2 slice down. That other 1/2 slice is very skinny. You can have that, too, just be sure to log it and keep track." And then, I just felt like I couldn't eat enough of anything.

I normally try to stay below my 1400 calories per day and "bank" my extra calories for Friday or Saturday, but this week, coming off the slippery slope of pizza slices Sunday, I slid into Monday continuing the pattern. I went way over my calorie budget of 1400 by more than 450 calories!! In 13-14 weeks, I haven't done that. I have had to be very careful Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and continuing today to get my calorie average (for the week) back down to 1400 per day by Saturday.

Some of my 4-lb gain might have been due to salt/water retention...but maybe not all of it. I'm *finally* back down to the weight I was this time last week. So, no progress made this week due to PIZZA. I think I am going to have to treat pizza like an alcoholic has to treat alcohol. There's no having a little of it in moderation for me. I have to stay away from it and not even fool myself into thinking I can have "just a little bit." Nope. I have been indulging (with all manner of other kinds of foods) every Sunday since I started this plan, but never have my indulgences led into more indulgences after my splurge day ended. There must be something different about pizza for me. Obviously a trigger food.

I think the only pizza for me in my future is going to be my homemade kind on eggplant slices or on a carb balance tortilla. (Both of those are actually pretty good. Not the same, but still satisfying.)

Has anyone else figured out if there are certain foods that you need to 100% avoid because they make you lose all manner of control when it comes to eating? What are your trigger foods?

I discovered a new favorite basically zero-calorie snack. Vlasic has these hot & spicy tabasco pickle spears. Yum. Sodium content is probably off the charts, but, hey.

I was on a mission today to simply try to buy a smaller size in a black skirt and a black pair of pants. What is the deal? Black plants are a plenty, but I spent 4 hours trying to find a simple, knee-length, decently structured, good fabric, washable black skirt. Finally found one at Target, and that was after hitting Lane Bryant, Dress Barn, and three of the anchor department stores at the mall. Hit Target on my way home, before my husband sent out a search party for me, and finally found one. Of course, I spent some $$$ on other stuff along the way.

The most exciting thing? Buying some stuff that was a size Large. Just a plain Large. Not 3x, 2x, 1x or XL, but just L. (Squeal!). And I was trying on stuff, liking stuff, and deciding against certain items because I didn't like the style--not because I looked bad in it. I was lookin' pretty good! This momma of 4+ hasn't enjoyed trying on clothes in a loooong time. Today was tiring, but fun!!!
