The scale is moving up…
Journal, Mental Health April 3rd, 2009ARGHHHHHH…. take a few days off of exercising and I have a 5lb gain! 5 LBS!! WTF is that all about! I keep telling myself that I was pumped so full of fluids on Tuesday that by body is still trying to get rid of them (which could be true b/c my fingers are still a little swollen) but methinks that it’s just wishful thinking.
This is what I hate about deiting and my body. If I don’t exercise EVERY DAY, any progress I made gets thrown out the window. It’s like my metabolism is non-existant and even if I eat lettuce 3 times a day I still have a gain if there is no exercise. And you know what… I don’t have TIME to exercise every night. Or if I do, I sure don’t feel like doing it, or hubby gives me some sort of attitude b/c oh no.. I’m going to go running again (really, support is nonexistant in my house).
Blah… sorry for the early morning rant. I just get so frustrated sometimes. Why can’t I just live my life the way I want and lose the weight I want!! Plus I’m frustrated b/c I’ve really wanted to run the past few days but I know I am not up to it yet. Being at work all day yesterday destoyed me… I went to bed at 8:30 last night. I feel better today though. Hopefully i”ll be back to normal and running next week.

I am about 99.9% sure that you didn’t have a fat gain of that much. If you had an IV, I’d say that is the where the weight came from.
What up with the hubs not supporting the running?! Does he not REALIZE that a running wife is a HAPPY wife?
Do you think he is somehow jealous of it taking time away from him or something?

He probably thinks that while you are running, you will run into some super hot running dude, and you will run off into the sunset together. Men suck balls, agreed.
Don’t fret over the 5lbs. Your body is in shock, I’m sure, from all the crazy $hit goin on. You will be back to normal in no time.

It’s weird and annoying that your weight seems to be going up for no reason. The one thing I’m thinking is that I’m assuming you had a general anaesthetic and those things really knock you about. They are no joke on your body, and even when it’s only minor surgery, you still have to recover from the general. Don’t let it put you off and don’t let those scales run your life.
