Last year, on February 25, 2009, I weighed 150.0 pounds.
This year, on February 25, 2010, I weighed 150.6 pounds.
It seems like all my hard work from the past year was for nothing, and I am very depressed. I have started eating right, though, and I'm going to begin lifting weights again at the gym. I know that I can no longer lift what I could before, so I know that I need to build my muscles back up again.

FEBRUARY 25, 2010 - VACATION FROM HELL
In February, we went on vacation to Florida for 2-1/2 weeks, and I slowly put on weight, even though I ate what I should, and tracked everything on Fitday. The only thing I can figure out is that I was drinking a lot of very salty water, and I was putting on water weight. And not only that, but the weather there was record-breaking cold, and we sat around indoors the whole time, watching it rain. I went to the pool and got some sun two days.
Here are my scale weights for February:
2/1/2010 138.8
2/2/2010 140.4
2/3/2010 138.2
2/4/2010 138.4
2/5/2010 139.8
2/6/2010 141.2
2/7/2010 139.8
2/8/2010 141.0
2/9/2010 141.9
2/10/2010 142.8
2/11/2010 143.6
2/12/2010 144.0
2/13/2010 143.2
2/14/2010 144.4
2/15/2010 144.2
2/16/2010 144.8
2/17/2010 145.4
2/18/2010 145.4
2/19/2010 144.2
2/20/2010 146.6
2/21/2010 148.2
2/22/2010 148.2
2/23/2010 150.0
2/24/2010 150.3
2/25/2010 150.6
I had been really excited about going to Florida, because I had lost weight and wanted to take new photos of me in my swimsuit, so I could have a great "before and after" montage. But the longer I was there, the heavier I got. It was very frustrating!
Finally, in the last few days, I just said "Heck with it!" and started eating whatever I wanted, including ice cream, chocolate, lots of fruit and bread. I was gaining anyway, so what could it hurt?
Of course, I knew that when I got back home, I would get back on track.
