Didn't make Birthday Mini Goal BUT....
I am on the right track with the exercising (Curves) and my LC WOE!
A few questions: 1. Did any of you who started to seriously exercise notice a temporary (I hope) gain in weight and in measurement? I am about 1/4-1/2" up in all places on my body except waist (down 1 inch) - I only started to seriously exercise on Monday. 2. My appetite has increased - should I change my eating? More protein, more carbs...anyone>??? Any advice/comments would be welcomed! |
Hi Yvonne
Are you measuring yourself? I find it can be hard to be sure if I'm measuring at exactly the same spot as before. The only places I'm real sure of are the waist - easy to find the narrowest part and the bust easy to use nipple area as a reference point. other than that - its easy to be off a little on what spot to place the tape around. This might make it look like you have gone up when actually you havent. :) |
Oh yes, I am measuring same spots - - I think its water retention in my muscles since they are achy.

Happy B-day!!!
I think muscles definitely soak up water when you first start REALLY using them. I wouldn't worry about it. If you feel good, I'll bet you're right on track! :bday: :Party: :bday: :Party: |

Awww ... Thank you for the Bday wishes.
Boss took me out for lunch (with the rest of us in our dept) and I was good - Broiled Scallops Casino style (bacon, red pepper) and instead of the rice pilaf I ordered Broccoli on side :) Proud of myself for resisting. Wow...first birthday in a long time I actually am enjoying! THANKS! |
Happy Birthday Yvonne!
Since a woman can easily retain 5lbs during TOM, in my math, you are 2 lbs below your goal! Ok.. I am not saying it is your TOM, but y'know... in my book, you achieved it. Way to go! :) |
Hi there! I began Body for Life 31 days ago---I gained a solid 4 pounds and kept it for three weeks. I measured myself yesterday and am up 1/4 to 1/2 inch in arms and calves, but down considerably in my belly (2 1/2 inches!!!). So, I wouldn't sweat it (har har). Just the muscles building and retaining water :D
