Body weight fluctuates during the day...you will drive yourself nuts if you step on the scales all the time. Once per week is enough or otherwise every morning at the same time!!!! For example if you have scheduled cheat night before weigh-in you might find yourself 4-7 lb heavier..Extra carbs will attract extra water so your glycocen gets replenished and then you will weigh more for a day or two Get of those bloody things now ok!!!!!!
Re: diet
I havent weighed in for 18months precisly because of what you are experiencing right now. You have to weekly to let me know whats going on right now but thats it. Once a week no more.
And you made fun of me crying at Home Makeover, such a girl

Well, I used to love all kinds of crap but I'm learning that everything that is good is not "good".
Did I say I got a good workout in tonight!?!
My wife is away for a two day seminar and I thought I would be nice and clean the house and get it all spic and span for her......I can hardly wipe the counters off because my chest is so ripped up....
Re: me
I feel really good today!!!!! AND of course I stepped on the scale this morning... ...I just keep losing weight!!!
Feeling like I do is very motivating to keep going and actually I feel like I want to do more to speed up the weight loss and muscle gain. I thought about maybe doing some treadmill or bike cardio but then I remembered.......I HATE Cardio!!
I tend to get a little hungry around 9 - 10 p.m. and that's the time I used to go in the kitchen and make me a couple PB & J's and a big tall glass of milk......Last night I just stayed busy cleaning the house and that kept my mind off of it. I did have one bite of one of my wife's Special K bars and it sucked so I spit most of it out.......I consider that an "almost" cheat
Anyway....I love to feel thin'ish again and I can't wait to bust my butt and get to the big prize at the end of this.........
..............MACHO MAN MIKE.............
It's what you learn AFTER you know it all that counts!
Re: me
You can have PB & J if you want, its the type of PB & J that matters. Your breakfast is approximately 40g protein, 30g carbs and 20g fat, so this is how you would have your PB & J. You can have your whole grain bread for your carbs (about 2-3 slices depending on the amount of carbs per slice), Smuckers makes a sugar free jam that would only be a couple grams of carbs per tbsp which adds up to nothing. Then you will have about 2tbsp of NATURAL PB for your fat. Having a protein shake (made with water) to make up the remaining protein required and you have a meal that kills your cravings and fits into the diet.
THis is how you make healthy eating a lifestyle and not a temporary "diet".
Right now I'll stick to your diet and then by the time I get ripped, maybe I'll learn an ounce of what you know!!!
My wife just called and she'll be home in an hour...I miss her
