Oh boy....

Fiber & water. I firmly believe this is the key to weight loss because when you spend THAT much time in the bathroom after eating high fiber foods & drinking water to combat the fiber, that's how you lose weight. You flush it down the toilet. That is all. :)

Up

As I mentioned yesterday, I knew I'd be up. A whole 2.6 pounds. My tongue still feels bloated. I've started drinking (guzzling) my water. I even have my travel bottle chilling in the fridge to take with me today to my computer classes at the career center. So I'm prepared & I get hydrated. I'm also going to bring a banana & some almonds with me too.

The class is only 3 hours but I'm used to grazing throughout the day. I don't want to be starving & get home & eat something out of starvation.

Since I'm up, my daily points went up, again. I'm good like that ;)

That is pretty much all I have for now.

Have a great day.

Salty Goodness

It's no secret I have a love of all things salty. I love chips, cheese, crackers, popcorn, hot sauce, dips you name it. Some where during this week, I found a salt lick & it's now resting in my body. I have gone through my food tracker, because I tracked really well this week but I can't quite determine where it's from.

I had a good week tracking & eating this week, so I shouldn't be up by the pounds (yes, I said pounds) that I am showing. I have been drinking my water but not expelling it, apparently. I feel dehydrated, my tongue feels huge & I feel the cramps in my feet. I couldn't possibly have had THAT much salt to feel that way. I think it has to do with the classes I've taken.

I've consistently had muscle soreness since last Sunday. I love the classes because they incorporate strength training. My soreness hasn't been to the point of me walking like Frankenstein, just discomfort and not unbearable.

I know, from my many conversations with Donna, that as muscles repair themselves they will hold onto water. So add that to my love of salt & there is where my gain is coming from.

I'm not concerned about it. I know that if I keep tracking & exercising it will all balance itself out.

Onward & upward!!!

Effing Snow

It snowed last night, after we had that luscious taste of spring. I know, I grew up with snow, much much MUCH worse than this, but I moved south for a reason. Guess I didn't move far enough south ;)

No beating around it. I had another gain. 1.7lbs. Wooootttt!!! It was comfort food week, any girl knows what that means. Also, I forgot I could have all my comforts if I accounted for them. I didn't account for them. I also didn't really drink my water. I'm feeling that. My face has felt puffy all week when I got up each morning. I know, my mistakes, my gain. I've accepted 7 moved on.

Today starts a new week. I'm back working toward getting on track!

Have a good one!
