Ok I need input. Something strange has happened....I haven't worked out in 4 days due to feeling a little under the weather this weekend and frankly, when I wasn't catching up on sleep trying to feel better I was a chicken with my head cut off running around. As a result I also didn't have time to cook or grocery shop so the only snacks I ate were sugary stuff I already had. booo....
But needless to say, when I got to work today and weighed myself (yes, I don't own a scale so I'm forced to weigh myself at work with clothing on. It's more realistic since the Dr.'s office always weighs you with clothes on too...right?) I had lost yet another pound. My theory is that I've lost a slight bit of the muscle mass I have gained due to regularly working out. So I will test my theory by getting back on the horse this week and see if I gain back. Mind you, I am back to my healthy eating once again. What do you think caused this strange phenomenon? Has this happened to you before? I tell ya what though....It almost makes one not want to work out. ALMOST. But I know it's good for me and it makes me feel good so I won't be fooled by the little devil on my shoulder just yet.

That has totally happened to me. I think it's because in the midst of the madness I actually ate less calories, even though those calories were sugar filled. But I totally hear you on the temptation to stop working out. Because your body MUST be telling you something, right? :)
Stick with it! You can do it!
