@buddysmom80 - Thanks! Did you scream and curse at Jillian yesterday? I call her the worst names when I do 30DS.

buddysmom80

@swazzle I did yell at her a little bit. I HATE jumping jacks so I got annoyed at all of that. The strength training I enjoyed, the ab work I was "meh" about.

I don't know if I'm having a hormonal fluctuation with my weight or what since my period is approaching, but as of Friday, I was -1.4 and now I'm +0.5 from my weight at the beginning of the DietBet last Sunday.  It was really discouraging to see a loss and then go back past my beginning weight and even higher, even if it is only half a pound.  I hope it's just water retention.

B- ham, egg, and cheese on an english muffin, coffee with skim
S- yogurt and an apple
L- grilled chicken wrap with spinach, tomato, and avocado
D- chicken chili with zucchini, tomatoes, peppers, onions, and white beans

E- day 8 of blogilates

@Dignity100 - Thank you! I'm getting there, I'm taking it slowly which I have mixed feelings about. I'm still not back to where I was 2 weeks ago but I'm sure working out has something to do with that.

I'm so excited because yesterday was the 2nd body fast test I've done since my 30 day span and I gained 1 lb of muscle and lost 1.05 lbs of fat so I lost weight overall and gained mostly muscle. It's so refreshing to see hard work being paid off sometimes.

B- Scrambled eggs

L- Leftovers from going out to dinner last night- crabcakes

D- Calzones- not at all healthy but I told H we could have one cheat night a week.

E- CrossFit

Peaseblossom55

B- hot chocolate oatmeal and a banana

D-zucchini and portabello mushroom

S-tea and cookies

E-abs workout and dancing at rehearsal

Great job @swazzle! @sakalicious... try to weigh yourself 1) at the same time each day and 2) at least a week apart, and 3) naked. Otherwise you're just playing mind games with yourself.

B: scrambled egg w/ red pepper

S: red pepper slices

L: ?

S: coke

chicken parmigiana maybe?

E: 3 mile run this a.m. in the freshly-fallen snow

For the first time in awhile, the pants I'm wearing today are bugging the crap out of me because I need to keep pulling them up. WOOHOO

@sakalicious - without fail, I gain close to 5 lbs around my period, and as soon as it's over I lose it.  it's frustrating, but I've noticed the pattern and just don't weigh myself during that week.  I also go up almost a whole size...  ugh!!

Sakalicious

@cu97tiger we have to submit weigh-in photos so I have to wear clothes for the 'official' ones.  I just need to avoid the scale around my period.  All the bloats!  @CocoBellaF, it is eeeevil.  I completely forgot it was coming until I noticed my pants and looked at where I am in my pill pack.  Womp womp.  Munching on an apple now.

@LivLeighton - Thanks! I stopped putting milk in my coffee a month or 2 ago. I can't go fully black though, I do 1-2 splendas still. I don't know if I'll ever get down to fully black.

So, I made FI go to the gym with me yesterday (he had to do that, make sure I didn't eat anything else all day, and help me grocery shop in order to get me to make buffalo wings last night.) He weighed himself there (we don't have a scale at home), and found out that he's somehow about 6lbs lighter than he was a couple of months ago. So, he lost the same amount of weighed that I worked my ass off to lose, WITHOUT EVEN TRYING. It's not fair!

labro

@Hummingbird125 It's the same thing with my FI. I hate him for it sometimes. It's so unfair.

@LivLeighton - That's a good idea. I would love to cut Splenda out all together. I'll try doing just 1 for the next couple of days and see how it goes.
