I was devasted about gaining nearly 5 lbs in one week, but I realize pms does a number on me. One thing I've learned is that I'm usually well behaved a good solid 2 weeks out the month, but by the 3rd and part of the 4th week I just pig out! I've got to get a handle on that, but I'm not sure how.
Since my official weigh-in day is each Saturday, I went ahead and recorded my 189 lb. weight, BUT I came down with a nasty sore throat Saturday night. I doctored on it ALL weekend but it just wouldn't go away. I feel like total crap and just couldn't take it another day. I went to my doctor this afternoon and just like I figured....strep throat. My husband just made it home with my Z-pack prescription so I'm hoping it will knock out the pain and lower my fever immediately. I'm so miserable.
The only upside is this sickness leaves me with little appetite. My throat feels like razors and the thought of eating overwhelms me. Just tried eating a mashed banana, and it felt like gravel going down. I weighed in at 189 Saturday morning and by this afternoon I was 183.5. Imagaine that, 5.5 lbs. weightloss in 2 days. I'll just milk it for what it's worth b/c no telling what will happen once I get over this strep. My appetite may come back with a vengence OR maybe this will be a new start towards my weightloss efforts.
We'll see. Weigh-in is on Saturday.
182 lbs. on 11-14-09
