    Yesterday ended up being a rest day/cheat day. It was my wedding anniversary and we had sushi and wine for dinner. I tried to stick to sashimi but a roll may have slipped in. I am traveling today so again no work out. I am going to have to up my activity during the weekend.
    Merflan great job with the assault bike. I always wanted to try it out but they don't have them at my gym. Looks like a great cardio workout

    I used to be a spin junkie, but after a year of it, and not losing and inch I stopped. That was when weights came into my life lol. I like the assault bike because 10 mins and you've had a crazy good HIIT workout in a very small amount of time.

    I hate spinning. Lol. In fact, I hate biking in general, but spinning is just uncomfortable.

    **turns around and goes to free weights section**

    I love spinning. I love weights more, but once I got past the first few sessions spinning was an amazing, endorphin sweat fest.

    Thank you ❤️. Pain is part of the game. I just wish I knew what's wrong with my arm. Everytime a different pain location but it's better than before.

    I don't know if it's the same... But my knees always pop when I bend them. Supposedly it's due to airbubbles in the joint cartilage. I don't know if it's what you are experiencing though

    Weak muscles around the knees could be one of the reasons. I used to have clicking knees when I go up or down the stairs.

    You need to strengthen the quad muscles

    If you google online you'll find lots of articles about it.

    sounds good will do! it's just one knee but I guess I could work on strengthng both quads if I have too :wink:

    shadow it sounds like a click not a pop.

    just nervous as I don't want an injury.

    in 2010 I had lost 50 pounds and completed a half marathon. I ended up with pf and could barley walk and it derailed me...that can't happen again :smile:

    Well I had a party, at my gym no less, Saturday night so I'm staying off the scale until tomorrow :wink: . Otherwise a good weekend, no gym as my body has been screaming for a rest. Back at it tonight. I felt horrible yesterday, like I was hungover all day however I hadn't had more than two beer. I did however eat whatever I wished on Saturday night. Has anyone found that after going low carb, you feel awful when you do indulge??

    Moonkat great job on the PR's!! I like your profile pic, one of these days I need to get one like that.

    Treehuginmama PF is the worst!! I've had it too and it was some of the worst pain I've ever had.

    merflan I had two shots of rum a couple weeks ago and it was the first drink I'd had since starting in may. I also drank a half of a natural cola I was told was sugar free that wasn't. the next day I felt hungover all day. I wondered if it was my body processing alcohol different or the sugar?? not trying that experiment again so I don't know lol but two drinks would never do anything prior to low carb.


    day two of jm complete....lower back realky sore when I got up...too heavy for high impact? I am 237 pounds.

    I had a fun weekend away with my girlfriends. I tried to be good but cannot say that I was a 100%; Maybe 80%, which means I was closer to 60%. Getting back to my routine today. I am doing back/bicep this afternoon with 45 min of stepmill.
