ok friends, last week I gained 3 pounds back due to swelling in my legs because of the extreme heat :( Today I am back down to what I was but a little less. I am getting discouraged and I need some support right now. I am doing everything I am supposed to do and I cant seem to get out of this funk :( What do I need to do? Or do I just keep doing what I am doing and wait!?!? OR do I need to change my calorie intake? I am so confused by the whole eat your calories back after you exercise thing.

    You can make your diary public and then people can actually help.

    If you google omega 6 foods and stop eating them! They cause inflammation. The (S)tandard (A)merican (D)iet (can, package,

    box, frozen, and fast food) produces a ratio in excess of 40 to 1 6's to 3's and it should be 5 to 1

    Watch your portion sizes. Also, don't eat all of your calories back, only eat some of them back.

    I know its hard but you must believe your way through it. just hold fast that you have been doing a great job so far. what is past help is past worry. you cant control the heat, so you must worry about the swelling causing a bit of weight gain. you will be back in top form in no time.

    swelling in the heat will happen just make sure you keep up with your water intake. A lot of people think drinking more water will make them retain more water..not true. You'd be amazed at what water will do.
