Getting Back in Good Habits

I used to post here a lot, but haven't been around for ages. It's great to see so many familiar screen names still here!

In the meantime, although technically sticking to No S (It's become second nature; by this point, it would feel downright WEIRD to snack or have dessert during the week!), I'm up eight pounds since this time last year. I know exactly why -- too little exercise, and I have been buying lunch during the week instead of packing it. Even if it all fits on a plate, most lunch options are just much more food and more calories than I need.

So I'm recommitting to the habits that helped me lose 20 pounds -- taking the stairs, brown-bagging, and walking every day. And I'm posting to keep myself honest! I'm going to try to keep April GREEN for exercise and brown-bagging (but I figured no need to wait until April 1 to start, right?)

Welcome back! I was reading an older post recently (don't remember which one) and you had posted. I wondered what happened to you.

Thank you, everyone! It's always embarassing to come back and go "I've been slacking and gained weight," but at least I know exactly what to do about it, and this is SUCH a supportive atmosphere, it means a lot to me.
