Aw, that stinks. I hope you feel better!

I don't know what's up with me... I gained like 2 or 3 lbs already this week! The only thing I did different is start to exercise (jogging/walking, squats, lunges, etc.). Maybe it's just temporary, but it's frustrating.

Thanks. You're probably going to experience some water retention if you've changed your exercise routine. It will go away soon though.

Thanks!! I thought, why not be our own best motivators and put ourselves first for a change. We're always so busy taking care of everyone and everything except ourselves. Putting my needs over things has been pushing me along on this journey.

Woo! So I finally get to be officially added to the group and I've come down with a cold I had JUST worked my way up to doing full workouts again too after the flu! Booooooo.

But just checking in. I did decide to make myself homemade chicken soup instead of stuff from the store. Help keep the sodium down and control the portions

Rest and take care of yourself and you will feel better soon & kick it with the rest of us!

I love your creativeness. I probably would have said oh well and ate the whole bun!

I agree with Dix. It is most likely water weight from your muscles retaining water for repair.

Had another good day yesterday. Cals were right at 1500 did 30 DS. Was way too tired yesterday to get up and do LBWO so I just pushed it till today. Got up at 5:30 and got it done already. Will workout again tonight with my friend.

Have a POP Thursday!!
