Yo-yo Weight Loss Sucks!

Over the last couple of months my weight has fluctuated between 205 and 209 on an almost weekly basis.  I will eat healthy and exercise and get down to 205 but then something gets in the way.  I twinged something in my back and hip and didn't go to the gym for 2 weeks and gained 5 pounds.

Then I really focused on eating healthy and going on the elliptical 4 to 5 times per week and lost the 5 pounds.  Then I got a bad chest cold and couldn't work out and stopped watching my diet because I felt so crappy and just wanted to feel better.  Up my weight went again.

When I started to feel better I also started eating better but then I had a week were there were lots of parties and socializing.  Gained 5 pounds again.

Now I am back to faithfully exercising - I have gone to the gym 2 times this week and jogged 3 times but I am finding it hard to  stick to my diet.  I just want to eat good food and not always eat salad or super small portions.  I am feeling tired and stress and I am turning to food for comfort.

It really sucks.
