Funny you mention this... this last week I have either been one extreme or another, either I can keep a damn thing in and am constantly looking for a toilet or not a thing is coming out. Can anyone explain this?

I'd be lying if I said I was doing well. Saturday I went to a babyshower where there was homemade desserts. Horrible to my diet, just horrible! Then I went out this weekend and drank like a fish. Then after a night of boozing I went to the diner where I stuffed my face with a cheeseburger and cheese fries. We are talking a billion calories. Then Sunday I went to a mother's day party and stuffed my face there.

 

It just keeps getting worse. And the really atrocious part of it all is that I haven't been to the gym since Wednesday. The scale may break when I step on it on wednesday.

I've been checking in on that thread from time to time, I actually bought "whole body cleanse" at the store the other day and started doing that, so I'm hoping it will help. I didn't want to spend the money for the colonix, but who knows if this doesn't help I might be anyway!

I've just never had this problem before, I've always been very regular.

Glenda mentioned a few weeks ago that her nutritionist told her that eating healthy constipates you (something to that effect)

I know I've been trying to not eat too many carbs, so the lack of fiber probably doesn't help too much!

Glenda, get your butt to the gym!!

I had a couple lapses over the weekend, but today I got back on track and I did 4 miles on the treadmill tonight. My back has been bothering me today, so I didn't want to do P90X since there would be a lot of twisting and stretching, so the treadmill was a good option.

And, my stamina and time on the treadmill have really improved, which made me happy because at least I'm seeing progress.

Now if only I can get through the breakfast I have to go to tomorrow!

I've had an alright day today. I barely slept last night (thinking about my poor little cousin Mac at the hospital) so I was pretty tired all day. I walked 4.6 km (around the lake twice) but skipped the gym. I just didn't have any energy!! It took me 40 minutes to walk the 4.6 km (quick enough pace) Does anyone have any idea how long it should take to walk a km?? I actually considered jogging, but it was raining & pretty slippery so I decided to take it easy.

I even said no thanks to chinese food & had wholegrain breaded haddock & rice & veggies for dinner instead! Very proud of myself there too!

i confess i was REALLY naughty at the baseball game tonight... shared a soft pretzel with cheese with the FI, ate a hot dog, a couple of french fries, and cotton candy. then when we got home FI made me eat dinner too!!!! i hope i shit all of it out with my colonix fiber tomorrow LOL

[dancingdolphin]

Can't believe tomorrow is the first weigh in! Sunday afternoon wasn't so good for me, but I got back on track yesterday. Hope my hard work is reflected on the scale. I was so tempted to weigh myself this morning, but resisted.

What is P90X? i've seen it mentioned somewhere else but i wasn't sure what it is.

I feel a little bit better knowing that a lot of people are having as bad a first week as i am. but today is a new day.

[Yari]

I haven't had the best week either. Since work was extra crazy, I ate what was available to me. Not all good things, but I did lots of manual labor so I am hoping that I burned a lot of calories. I did good last night, had El Pollo Loco. Yummy!

 

This morning I had a skinny vanilla latte and a reduced fat breakfast sandwich without the bacon from Starbucks.

 

I am heading to the gym in one hour. I am also meeting my trainer.

 

Tonight I am hosting a dinner party for my girlfriends and it's Mexican night. Ugh...margies and enchiladas.
