4 pounds gone

[vinesqueen 2]

okay, how crazy am I? I've been tracking my calories and trying to stay really close to 1200 calories. Trying hard, hard. hard to loose weight. Working out, drinking Water, and watching my calories.

Well, last week I said "to hell with it. It's not working my way, and I have a fill scheduled." I had a couple of days where I was above 1600 or well, darn close to it anyway. Ice cream, chocolate, chips, snarff.

I figured that I would punish myself by going to the gym and using the scale. (The dance studio doesn't have a scale that I've found...) Well, imagine my surprise when I discovered that I'm down a pound.

Sometimes the body needs a quick kick in the rear - sounds like a day of fun eating was what you needed to start losing. Good job. Celeste

Congratulations, Vines

I can't answer your question as to why this happens, but I've noticed the same. During football season, we would go to pregame functions full of food. If I had a few vodkas and some good potato chips and maybe a slice of cake, I always was shocked to see the scale go down on the following Monday. Its bizarre, but it does happen occassionally.
