  • You probably pooped a little extra this morning.
    This is why I weigh my poop.
    That makes me scared and confused.....
    Don't be. I use gloves and wax paper on the scale.
    Ok I have to ask, does the same amount come out that goes in?

    Of course not, silly. My body absorbs a portion of the food as fuel.

    LOL. I love this.
    As an unlicensed internet physician, I will try to sum this up with a diagram of what is happening with your weight loss and increased caloric intake.

    Sometimes a good feeding shocks the body's metabolism into overdrive.
    Be glad, but cut back to goal over the next 5 days before trying that again.

    Bobby is right, that is what I do when I hit a plateau. Bodybuilders do this too they call it "carb cycling" you eat low carbs on the days you don't lift heavy and load up on heavy lifting days about 2 to 3 days a week. It gets your body out of starvation mode. I usually work out just before I eat my dinner or breakfast. That way my body is already burning calories when I eat and I don't store much as fat. I wouldn't worry about a gain or loss over night unless it is more than 3 - 5 lbs. I can lose 3 lbs. going to the bathroom LOL.
    I never weigh in without taking a good poo...lol

    It wasn't the place I was confused by. It was that your diary had 40 wings, but now you're saying that you bought 20 each. If you only ate 20, then your calorie count is high by 1,420, Champ.

    baah last comment on this thread for me. we bought 20 of each chicken. there was 7 types. 7 x 2 = 140. 140 chickens / 4? 35 but the two people stopped eating because they were full. so i had around 40 pieces.
