Tomorrow I start carb cycling and because I won't be weighing myself for two weeks, I stepped on the scale today to find that I'm up 5 lbs. Bummer!

Between upping the exercise to 6 days a week, my muscles being sore and retaining water, TOM about to make a visit, the increase in certain food, and the increase in the number of meals I eat each day, I'm not surprised...just disappointed.

I know Coconut oil, flaxmeal and cottage cheese stall a lot of people, but I've recently increased all three of these items in the name of good health.

My weight loss has slowed significantly over the past few weeks for a number of reasons. I've been moving up the carb ladder and trying new foods, I've upped my calories beause I've started to work out more, and I've added a lot of coconut oil, flaxmeal, fiber, the CLA/GLA combo and other supplements. *whew* Due to these changes, I've recently made the decision to start carb cycling.

home scale is 152.5!

"But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil."

Amen, Amen, and Amen!

WOW I hit the 180's today When the scale said 189 I almost fell over. This makes an even 30lbs gone forever. I feel great and people are really starting to notice. Hopefully I can quit running around and get some exercise time in this weekend. I got into a pair of size 16 pants. They were a little tight but definitely wearable.

Mini Goal: 185
Big Goal: 150
