Hey Jill!

TGIF is right!!!

Just catchin' up here! Congrats on you and Steve's 5 yr anniversary. Sounds like you had a delicious day there

I am with ya on the chin-up thing. Right now my PR is 4 with 100 lbs (I use the assist machine). I am hoping to do at least one with my BW someday!

Oh, remember how we were talking about how when we come home from work (or anywhere really) we always head straight to the kitchen and get something to eat? I found that the past couple days when I get home from work hungry as always that when I have natty CHUNKY PB on - what else - ezekiel bread, it really hits the spot. Then I go to the gym for 1.5 hrs, workout, come home and I am not totally ravished.

BTW when are you going to Vega$?? :jealous:

Damn woman that was one low-calorie day! The point of a cheat is to not lower your calories afterwards, but to have one day of excess to refill whatever's low lol I think punishment days actually defeat the purpose of cheats.

Dont make it a habit, those cals are TOO low!



I can do it

J-star-1/4C is like 20-25 cals, 5C Im addicted. Oh, I work alllllll weekend I cant complain, I had 3 days off this week.

Im so pissed today. I have been using the SAME scale for like 6 months. Yesterday Steve had to wieght the stupid lawnmower on it for some reason, now its saying my weight is up like 5 pounds more than nomal! I KNOW I am not holding any water-Ive hardly ate ANY carbies for the last 2 days, and guzzeled atleast 6-7L of water each day to get rid of the pizza bloat.

STeve said maybe it is now accurate, and that it wasnt before. I just wanna cry. Im mad that I allow the scale ruin my friggin life.

hey don't let it!!!! Go by your clothes, and what you look like. If you like what you see, then who cares what number comes up on the scale. I know it's hard to do, but it just makes sense after a while. Especially when you see that you have to buy new pants because all your pants are big on you! Go for that, and throw out the scale. Don't even buy a new one.

Jille - Like everyone here says "F^%& the Scale!!!"

Look back at a few of the posts in this journal where you were saying how your pants are now baggy on you -- THAT is what counts

There is no way you are up 5lbs! If you are, then you are probably like me and hold onto water like crazy. Don't stress about it hun. Keep doing what you are doing because no matter what the scale says it IS working!!!

Sorry you have to work all weekend. I live for the weekend. I just went "therapy shopping" and spent almost $200 But I deserve it

I hate my scale. I tried weighing a big jar of salsa on my mini kitchen scale-said 5 pounds. My bodyweight scale says 0 when I put the salsa on it. Piece of shit.

Personally I would hook that sacle up to a tow strap and drag it to the nearest Sears and buy a new one. Revenge is a healing thing too ... .

Hey Jilly! Forget about the stupid scale I NEVER step on the scale unless the Dr makes me and I really think that's a good thing for me. There are plenty of other ways to measure your progress
Have a good Monday
