Shan- calorie cycling seems to work for me. But I've started just using how clothes fit, since the scale doesn't seem to want to move on a regular basis.
The blue team won this week. We had a lot of freebies and/or no scale movement last week. Hope that changes for all of us this week. Only three weeks to go!!
I need to melt some BUTT-ER too!!!! I have definitely started my week off on the right foot...especially since I broke my pinky toe on my left foot this weekend. Yes, I am so graceful! LOL! It's all purple and swollen. I guess this week will be a concentration on upper body work since I won't be able to walk or jog very well.
I hope everyone had a wonderful, healthy day!

To those of us still hanging tough, congratulations. I was just reading an article that said only 12% of people of vow to better their health actually succeed. Only a few more weeks til the end of the challenge!
HANG TOUGH RED TEAM!
Oh, and Sindaena, congrats btw, but you're gonna have to quit breathing down my neck...I'm coming for you next week!
Off to a good start here. Got in a little strength training on my rest day yesterday. I have pt tonight and some solo time at the gym. Hoping to see a loss this week. I'm working on the calorie cycling like mel suggested. I think the days I have pt I will have a little higher calorie intake, and the days I have hot yoga and solo gym time I will keep to a lower intake. We'll see what happens. Cheers everyone!
I've been having a hard time today wanting to eat everything in sight! I gave up meat for lent, so I think my body just needs more fat as I have been craving peanut butter all day even though I hate it!
I have been craving peanut butter all day even though I hate it!
and i thought craving something i love was hard to handle!!
good luck avoiding the peanut butter!! i just can't open the lid....without my finger doing some dipping! i heart PB and J!
on the other hand, maybe its better to crave something you hate then something you love??? haha
It's really been terrible. I ate so much of it today, and you can do oh so much damage with peanut butter! I had a gain this week, and I think it had a lot to do with not being able to use meat as a tool to stave off hunger. Protein fills me up, but carbs make me hungrier so I have been ravenous and gaining weight!
