- I slacked last week and only worked out 3 days. Compared to what I have been doing that felt like slacking. But my goal was no less than 3/week so I still feel ok about it. Endurance wise tho, I'm progressing more slowly and that frustrates me.
-Periods really make it hard for a girl to feel good about diet and exercise and staying motivated. Stupid chocolate/sugar gremlins....
-To my pleasant surprise, I am down another half lb. Seeing as I was up 3lbs yesterday due to the fluid retention that Aunt Flo brought this is a happy thing after my weekend of fighting with the sugar gremlins.
-Answered my own question about why I lose weight when I haven't worked out for a few days. It's because when you exercise your muscles have to repair themselves and you get that "sore" feeling. Well you also get a little bit of swelling or inflammatory response as well. So when I don't work out the "swelling" goes down.... Ta Da!!! That's why I always weigh more after snowboarding and not less after burning like 1000 calories! That has always frustrated me so bad!
