Woke up this morning and wanted out of the Apt. The weather was fine and I am off tomorrow. Ran away (Drove) to the coast to see a lighthouse. I drove 11 hours round trip, but I got to climb the 126 lighthouse stairs, realized I am scared of heights, and walked on the beach. Only stayed there an hour, but I took great photos and got out of the mundane and hum drum of every day. I even stayed on track and packed my lunch and snacks. No fast food just because I was on the road.

Ate more than normal today. Craving protein (steak) again. I guess my deli lunch meat and hummus are just not cutting the mustard. The weather is getting gorgeous. I need to get my bike out and ride again.

My scale has been stuck again. I found this post someone put in a forum. It is a good morale booster when the scale is up and down 2-5 lbs in one - 2 days. The below is so what is happening to me.

Your scale weight can fluctuate 3-5lbs in any direction any given day or any given week due to factors that have nothing to do with your body fat.

Intense exercise, especially strength training - this makes the scale go up due to water and blood shifting within the muscle. It's normal and it's not a fat gain.

Constipation/irregular bowel movements - even your body waste has a weight because everything inside you is affected by gravity.

Normal fluid and hormone shifts - your body has bioryhthms related to menstruation, sleep/wake cycles, etc. Your hormones and body fluids will shift in response to these rhythms, and that can make the scale go up. Not a fat gain.

Eating fiber, drinking water - because everything is affected by gravity, these two heavy elements will have great weight inside you as well. Fiber can also cause bloating. Not fat gain.

Too much stress - plays with hormones, not fat gain

Too little sleep - plays with hormones, not fat gain

Eating too much sodium, eating processed and packaged foods - causes water retention leading to a gain on the scale. Not fat.

Any change to diet or exercise program - makes the scale go up as your body tries to work out these changes. Not fat gain.

Remember that to gain one pound of fat - ONE POUND - you'd have to eat 3500 calories ABOVE your weight maintenance calorie level. Meaning, if you maintain your present weight at 2000 calories a day, you'd have to eat 5500 calories to gain just ONE POUND of body fat.

So don't' trust the scale too much. It can be influenced by other things that have nothing to do with your body fat.

If you are strength training and eating in your calorie range reliably, then you did not gain fat. If you lose inches and your clothes loosen up, you're losing body fat no matter what the scale says.

Thing is, people say they want to lose "weight" when really what they want is to lose fat. The scale is not the best way to measure that all of the time. You could cut your leg off and instantly lose 20 lbs of weight. But it's harder to lose body fat and body fat is what matters -not your scale weight

Took a break from working out for the holiday weekend. 4 days off. Need to cool my heels literally and figuratively with sore heels. More school work and a paper to write this weekend. Fun Fun. The end of this class marks the official half way point in my doctoral program. Looking for the light at the end of the tunnel with out the train attached to it. LOL. Hope all have a good weekend.

Been hitting the gym hard. My heels are bugging me. Bought new running shoes, put new inserts in my boots. Can hardly walk after work outs. Doc says I have planter facitis. Grand. I will have to lighten up on the running. Dang just when you think it is safe to work harder it seems like you get set back a step.
