Rach, it's possible, if you're not feeling cold/flu sick. Just curious...are you a caffeine drinker? I know some people who were heavy coffee or soda drinkers and when they cut that stuff out of their daily routine, they got headaches and felt a little off. If that's something you changed...could be your body adapting.0

I have had NO willpower lately, proven by the Chocolate Mousse Cupcake that I'm about to go log. :frown: The problem is that I usually work out so much and then eat so much, that I would feel starved if I ate just the regular calories without all those extra exercise calories, because that's just how much food my body is used to consuming. So I'll go over my calories, no matter how "good" I eat, so I have little incentive to be good. It probably doesn't help that my post-cervical-surgery mood is "I'll eat what I want, when I want it, and I'll enjoy it!" combined with the fact that I'll get my TOM on Sunday--I'M CRAVING FOOD CONSTANTLY!! There's been a couple times in the last few days where I've told myself that I'm not really hungry or don't really need EXTRA food, but I only have so much willpower!! :sad:
That cupcake was SOOOOO good though... :devil:0 -
Ive upped my workout this week and have been dealing with same situation. Im always hungry. I wake up in the middle of the night hungry and cant sleep. I feel like I could eat all day and all night long. steamed broccoli is my new bff, Its low in calorie and I just use a couple spritz of spray butter, lemon juice, and a little sea salt. I eat a ton of it a day.0

Probably, Rach. My husband drinks Coke and Starbucks constantly and when he goes off of it, he gets a bit moody and the runs and all that bad stuff.
On another note: My little boy will be one in twenty days.
On yet another note: They are fighting us for his surgery. I'm ready to go into full mommy rage mode. >.<0 -

WTG! That is awesome0 -
So close to my goal weight!!
Sundays are my weigh in days since it's my "rest day" and my "cheat day"
147.6 and I had a "bad" eating day yesterday - went to a halloween party but I must say I did very good than what I would had done. On the other hand my husband STUFFED his face and than didn't feel so hot lol
For the past two weeks I just did afternoon workouts cause i felt like my body needed a rest but now I'm thinking if I would had done just one week of one workout sessions than I would either be at 145 now or at least closer to it.
This has got me motivated to start back up my two workouts a day along with getting back on track with drinking 10 or more cups of water!
Hope everyone has a great weigh in today/tomorrow0 -
So mad at myself. Cheated so bad three days this week and only went to gym 3 times instead of 5. Way to self-sabotage.0

That's amazing - congrats!
Can't make my session tomorrow morning in the gym as normal so will have to weigh in on Tuesday. Have had a mad week this week with lots of going out but have tried to rectify it with lots of training. Not sure how friendly the scales are going to be this week but will check in with you on Tuesday. Good luck to you all!0 -

I am scared to weigh-in tomorrow...I know I've gained weight (a lot of heavy exercise plus some not-so great food choices) **le sigh** am I ever going to get out of the 240's?
EDIT: so I was so aprehensive about tomorrow's weigh-in so I went ahead and a meeting with good 'ol scale and guess what? I was 242!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did I mention that was after eating and FULLY-CLOTHED! I am so juiced to do it again tomorrow morning in my birthday suit. I am so close to the 230's I can smell it!0 -
I stepped on the scale this morning at it said 171.8!!! I was just hoping to be back down to 173 this week. Guess all that water IS making a difference!!! I'm not logging it in the site until tomorrow though.

That's FANTASTIC!!!! I, on the other hand, have had a ****ty week again. I kept telling myself I was back on track, but I wasn't. Not at all.. I have been eating gluten for two weeks now, and I feel horrible. I can't concentrate or focus on anything, my stomach is a mess, I have constant headaches.... And the worst part is, its' all my own fault.
I am feeling better emotionally today though, so hopefully it will get better. As soon as I finish on here I am going to make my lunch and dinner for tomorrow. So here's to a better week!!!
Good job again though Rach! I know how hard things have been for you...
edit - haha! I guess i forgot about the no swearing rule. Lets say I had a crappy week!0 -
