Back to school again- Day 2.  The kids start tomorrow, so I have a lot to get done today.  

Kinda frustrated right now.... I lost quite a bit in week 1, nothing in week 2, and I'm a few days into week 3 and have still lost nothing.  I know fluctuations are normal, and that often if you have a big loss one week you won't lose the next week, but really.... even just a 0.4 loss would be nice.... just something, come on!  I'm sticking to my points.  Oh well.  Hopefully soon I'll start to see a loss again.

B: ww yogurt (1); fiber one bar (2)

S: grapes (1); string cheese (2)

L: smart ones meal (5); banana (2)

Good morning, Ladies!  I'm frustrated too - lost 1 lb the first week, and when I weighed last night it said I gained 4 lbs.  I refuse to believe it, since I have been carefully watching points (I still had most of my weekly points left) and I rode my bike 70 miles on Sunday.  I spin, do P90X, and hike - could it be my hydration is off?  I got very dehydrated over the weekend, including my bike ride.  Could I have been soaking up all the water I drank on Monday (more than 64 ounces) and that's what my extra 4 lbs were last night? 

B: shredded wheat & yogurt (4)
L: tbd

S: tbd
E: tbd

I know if I weight myself at night, I'm usually 3-4 pounds higher than if I weigh myself in the morning.  For purposes of tracking my weight loss, I only weigh myself first thing in the morning.

LesPaul- Are you sore at all?  Sore muscles retain water too.  It could definitely just be hydration issues too.  Drink a lot of water today  and I bet you'll be back down in no time.

B: PB Banana smoothie (5)
L: crustless quiche (5)
Friend coming into town.  I think we're going to PF Changs.  I'll get either the Sizchuan of the sea with shrimp or the Shanhai shrimp and eat half (5) and 1/2 cup rice (2) and one lettuce wrap (3)

Good morning, all. Don't worry, LesPaul and Vballgirl. It seems like all chicks have trouble with little fluctuations here and there that depend on different elements, like maybe you drank a bunch of water, or you're building more muscle, or it's that time of the month. Try to look at it in the long run. I hope this week is better for you!

S - strawberries (1)

Thanks, laides.  For consistency, I always weigh myself Monday night at the Y before spin class.  I just can't believe I've gained 4 lbs in a week, when I've been eating much cleaner and really tracking points.  I think it was my 'extreme' activity on Sunday that threw off my hydration.  If I go to spin tomorrow night I'll weigh again just for comparison.

Good morning!  Vball, did you just start WW?  The first week you usually lose a LOT, mostly water weight.  The second week often doesn't show much of a loss.  Don't worry, your body will pick up what you're doing and you'll start to see a steady loss!  Ditto PP to make sure you weigh yourself at the same time of day and with the same clothes (or non-clothes) to keep things the same.  Also, I can vary as much as 2 pounds or more depending on what I eat or if I have a lot of sodium the day before. Its all normal.

B: coffee, cottage cheese (3)
S: granola crisps (2)
L: avocado/tuna/cucumber/tomato salad (4), crackers (2), yogurt (2)
S: baby carrots (0), string cheese (2?)
turkey burger no bun (3), veggies (1)
S: ww ice cream bar (1)

E: HIIT 30 minutes, arms
