Do you log your calories burned? I religiously do and am amazed how much it varies even though I think I do about the same amount of exercise over time.

Also weigh yourself every day if you are home.

Sign up with an exercise group - biking, run group etc. at least a couple times a week to get your base burn rate up.

Business trips are a real killer - I don't have much advice but to buy your food at the grocery store. Only eat out when needed with company. Take your running shoes and put in at least a mile or two in the hotel gym or around town.

This thread sure helps to remember to stay on top of it, if your belt doesn't remind you enough.
