Before After

I Want To Cry

For the simple fact that according to my scale I've gained 5lbs since Monday!  That's just insane.  I know that I haven't eaten that great the last few days, but 5lbs for crying out loud.  I only gained 10 in a 5 month period, how could I gain that much in 5 days?!?!

So the house thing went ok.  They are raising the rent from $600 to $750 so I don't know if we can afford that.  We still have some debt to pay on and we want to start saving for a house.  We'll see what happens.  They want to come see our apartment and meet our dogs before they rent to us.  They don't like dogs all that much cause they get hair in the vents, and they don't like dirty people.  Now I don't consider myself dirty, but my house certainly looks lived in.  With both of us working full time jobs its going to.  When he found out I had a full time job his jaw hit the floor.  Then he says "Oh where to do you work?"  I told him and he says "Oh what do you do there?"  Obviously thinking I must be a secretary or something because when I said "I'm an engineer" His eyes got huge and he says "oh really?" like I didn't know they let women in those jobs.

OK, on to my food log:

Breakfast - 1/2 cup each of stawberries, raspberries and blackberries, and of course coffee.

Lunch - 100 cal salad, lean pocket

Dinner - 3 tacos and I have to say that they didn't have anything low fat except the meat was 93% lean. 

This weekend really needs to be good!  Hope everyone has a good weekend!

The heat?

It's been really hot where you are, right? Maybe the heat is just causing water retention. I know that happens to me when it's really hot outside! I'd recommend just paying attention to how much water you're drinking - chug, chug, chug! Flush it all out! Good luck!

Not really possible....

Gaining 5 pounds in 5 days is damn near impossible.  At least 5 pounds of FAT.  That would be 17,500 EXTRA calories.  Did you really eat that much?  I don't think so.  Stop weighing so often!   Your weight fluctuates for all kinds of reasons.  And you're getting down about it.  Would you be able to cut back to like once a week?
