Inexplicable

I lost 1.6 at WI this morning. Considering I didn't do much hard core activity (walking doesn't make me sweat it up like other stuff) and ate as much ice cream as I wanted (and gelato too, mmm) one would think that my dread of the scale all week would be appropriate.
Guess not.

ANd here's the thing - Incredible Shrinking Husband gained a pound. I have no idea how. The man eats pretty well (although he admitted to daily muffins at Travel Cafe all week) and works out like a madman (60+ APs!) I dont know how he does it but he was rightfully bummed about it. I know that feeling. So I couldnt really blame the attitude until, well, until I did blame it.

I went to a fundraiser tonight and the food they serve is always nast. Of course, I ate it all tho! Two dinner rolls, banana cream pie, mashed potatoes and chicken. I am down to 20 flexies for the week and we have pizza planned for tomoro nite. It's going to require major APs. Might have to RUN from Miles City to Terry.

Talked to the doc today and she prescribed me some speed to get my metabolism going. Hurray! Makes me nervous, the side effects don't sound very fun (poor sleep) and people who take it often gain after bc they think they can eat anything while on it. That is NOT the case. She told me to just be careful and not go crazy on food after I lose. Deal.

I watch Biggest Loser, and I have NO IDEA how they do it. They work out all the time, have healthy food always, yes. And no other obligations, true. But 10+ pounds in a week!? I don't think mere mortals such as myself can do it. I just don't understand how it would be possible in the face of all life requires.

My goal for this week is simply track EVERYTHING. Also, I'm going to eat CORE friendly foods and potentially switch to that program. Because whatever is happening on Flex ain't moving the fat. I'm losing inches so I know I'm doing something right but the scale isn't moving. Not Fair!

Going to go work on my favorite form of activity ... sleep :)
