I started a new job as a teacher in september. Teaching is really hard.

Since then, I have drastically cut back my levels of exercise, but did not drastically reduce my eating. I wasn’t writing down what I ate; I was not counting calories; and I’d come home from work and munch on crackers or some other carby food.

The end result: I gained 10 pounds in two months. I now weigh 145. The sad thing is that it took me 7 months of really hard work to lose those last 10 pounds and get down to 135. And, only two months of slacking off to put it back on. Crap, I’m really mad at myself.

I am back to writing down everything that goes into my mounth in my food journal, and counting every calorie.
