Day 17-
No loss today. Talk about disappointing…
Today’s been pretty similar to all other days so not much to report. Worked hard at work today and burned over 1000 cals so I wonder if I will lose more weight tomorrow? 436 cals today.
Day 18
½ pound gain!
Ok so I read the whole pound and inches book today and man I could have saved a lot of heartache by reading it through first! It talks all about when you don’t lose or even gain and how it’s deceiving because you’re actually retaining water. When your body is in the process of breaking down the fat sometimes it replaces it with water temporarily (which is heavier than fat!) Also eating salt, and if you over exert yourself (like I did the last few days) you will hold onto water even more. So you will appear to not loose for a day or two (when you really are) you just can’t see it yet on the scale. Then you have a large urine output when your body’s done with the water and your weight loss will show. So wheew! I’m not really gaining. Makes me feel much better!
