patch..fat doesnt turn to muscle..muscle eats fat. it burns more calories even at rest. Muscle as your building it holds water and yes you will weigh heavier on a scale but look slimmer in clothes..take your measurments..my kids do the p90x.. hard program but i hear so many fantastic things about it! I started it a few months ago but my body wasnt ready for it so even the fact your doing it is fantastic! and slow and steady wins the race...i have to keep telling myself same thing

Good Evening Everyone, today was a crazy day for me. I started a new eating plan and it didn't include an early morning snack so by 11:00-11:15 I was going crazy. I decided to vacuum until lunch time, that didn't work. I vacuumed two rooms and the stairs, then ate 12 baked lays, 5 honey wheat pretzels, 20 reg pretzels, 1 rice cake and 15 grapes. It wasn't bad, but it made me feel like I had fallen off the bandwagon. I cut my lunch because of the snacking and didn't eat as much as I thought. Well my guilt got to me and I got on that stationary bike. Diana I stayed on for 25 minutes and my distance was 5.50 miles. Yay, for me. Oh and I walked a mile and a quarter this evening.
mid morning snack frenzy (335)
15 grapes, 12 baked lays, 5 wheat pretzels, 20 reg pretzels, 1 rice cake
32oz water my mouth was so dry
Lunch (242)
chicken salad (hm) on 1 sl whole wheat, 1/2 cup vegetarian vegetable soup, 1/2 grapefruit, 16.9 oz water
~~~~~25 minutes on the stationary bike, 16.9oz water
Dinner (281)
3oz grilled chicken breast thin, 1/2 potato with spray butter, 1/2 cup spinach, 1 sl whole wheat toast, 1/2 cup skim milk, whole grapefruit cut up
16oz water
~~~~~walked a mile and a quarter, 16.9oz water, and 8oz green tea (zero calories)
I want to do a little jig , but on the other hand I don't want to give the scale gods another reason to pull the rug out from under me lol but the scale said 216.8 on the dot this morning lol even weighed myself 3 times in a row :P So we will see
Tara Great job! I'm in the same boat as you! Maybe we can do a little jig together! I am so excited to report that I made it to the teens! But I know I am getting ready to start TTOM so I may not stay there long. But I am there, so I'm doing that little jig with you Tara.
Congrats on your scale victories, ladies! And jondy, THANK YOU for mentioning My Fitness Pal!! I have been looking everywhere for something that would tell me how much calories, fat and carbs to eat and then track it. I looked at iPhone apps, websites, etc., and didn't find what I was looking for until you pointed out MFP!
