so here is the deal, my scale weighs 5 lbs lighter than the dr.s office, or the dieticians office. not a big deal you say? no, not in the long run, its not. but, when you are working your ass off for every lb, it kind of is. what am i going to do about it??? well, if it was the old me, i would just go food crazy, and stop working out, out of frustration. but the new me, is taking it in stride. i am bitching about it, and i will be over it in a few.
on a good note, i am averaging 2.5 lbs lost every week. very cool.
about the title, yeah, they want me to up my caloric intake from 1000-1200 to 1200-1400. apparently when you are losing weight, and working out, your body will go into starvation mode if you arent getting enough calories. and you will stop losing weight. this is all so insane sounding to me!!! someone actually wants me to get more calories in!!! never, ever, did i think this would be said to me!!! the dietician also wants me to not think that if i eat something bad, i should hurry and go work out, because that is eating disorder style thinking! somehow, i dont think that will ever be a possibility for me.
This is true and one of the things they teach you in WW ... when I stayed at the top of my points limit for the day instead of cutting back, I lost more weight more quickly!
