Plateau
Putting in the effort and not seeing any change is upsetting. My measurements have not changed since January and its been 3 months with no scale fluctuation as well. Although I haven’t seen much change in those areas I am able to do more than I was able to do since my back surgery. ThisContinue reading “Plateau”
Diet Conundrum
So I tried to live a vegetarian lifestyle but it’s not working out for me. I fear that I am not getting enough calories, protein and way to many carbs.

Week 3: Scale Fluctuation
Is my scale broken? or is it just me. My weigh in for Sunday 20 Jan was 150lbs. 2lbs up since week 1! WTF! This can be frustrating but know that it is normal. Yes, the scale can lie! but then again it never lies. Scale fluctuation is caused by multiple things. For instance whatContinue reading “Week 3: Scale Fluctuation”
Week 2: Ultimate Why
Hope everyone had a good week. So I didn’t do really well on the meal plan I set up for myself last week, and did not do so well with my goal of walking 3 miles a day. I am in week 3 of recovery from my microdiscectomy surgery and suffered a lot of painContinue reading “Week 2: Ultimate Why”
