quick post today, because i am heading out of the office for a bit in a few minutes. yesterday (day two) was another success. except that i couldn't move all day. the pain/lack of movement was worse than ever. my bum pain turned into a groin pull or something. it was a nightmare. but anyway... i took a bath and used a heating pad and went to bed early and it already feels much better today. i am not gimpy mcgoo anymore which is a bonus.
this morning i went down to the gym, but running was not an option. i tried a bit of walking first, but even that started to aggravate my groin pain so i stopped. instead i did a bit of stationary biking, a bit of arm weights, and the elliptical. i hate the elliptical but a girls gotta do what she has to do - desperate times people, desperate times.
for the record i am only being so hardcore this week because i am trying to slim down before friday. it is my boyfriend's bimonthly pop and art event and i will be wearing a dress and don't want my pooch to be pooching out. and i know i gained a bit last week (and on the weekend) and i want to nip it in the bud as fast as possible, thus the extreme exercise (although not extreme today) and counting of calories, which i don't normally do.
when i gain weight, i gain it first in my stomach. stomach and upper thigh area. this is how i know i've gained. i don't have a naturally thin stomach. it will never be flat like some women's stomach. i am an apple. skinny arms and legs mean nothing to me... it's all about the stomach. where do you gain weight first?
today on the menu is:
a navel orange
1 packet weight control cinnamon oatmeal
1/2 cup all bran
1 T flax
1 source yogurt
2 T pumpkin
1/2 cup plain 2% yogurt
2 vanilla fat free yogurts
1/2 cup raspberries
14 carrots
1/4 cup salsa
1 high fibre tortilla
and for dinner not sure - maybe heaps of edamame. yummy! one more day until the weekend... and my dreaded weigh-in... yikes!

I think I gain weight in my thighs/love handles first. That's the place I always notice it. Thank God these love handles are really starting to go away, for once! lol. I'd love to say goodbye to them for good!
I think I gain weight first in the thighs and tush area. My stomach is the first place I lose weight and the last place I gain. But I do wish the legs were smaller...... everyone always wants what they dont have right? heh.
i know this is gonna sound bad but i gain it in my boobs first. most girls would love that but i don't. yay almost the weekend.
i always have a double chin, which i hate! other than that probably my thighs and stomach...but pretty much everywhere, I don't really have a skinny anything which is really annoying.
i usually gain in my hips/thighs which is why i like spanx-like products... don't kill yourself before friday, wearing something under your dress (to hide the pooch) isn't a bad thing so i highly recommend it... i wear mine under pants sometimes to give it a smoother appearance... :o)
glad you aren't "gimpy mcgoo" anymore (that made me laugh!)
I am a hips/bum girl...first to gain, last to lose...I see your apple and raise you a pear!
I gain it right in my stomach too. I don't know if I will ever have one of those flat stomachs - how the heck to girls get those?
hahahha....gimpy mcgoo. you crack me up. Not that your pain is funny, but you are!
I tend to gain in my thighs and butt...sometimes lower back right above the butt. I am actually lucky to have a naturally flat tummy....it's not always firm, but I've yet to develop a pooch or anything.
However, when I lose, it constantly seems to be from my boobs or my face...and I really have no need to lose from those places!!!
Hips/butt are the first place to show the weight gain and, of course, the last to lose it. It sucks but what can you do but keep working at it.
I hope your feeling back to normal and quick, your working so hard and it sucks when you just don't right.
I gain in my stomach first and pretty much no where else, which is how I ended up with all that flab on the tummy after I lost my weight..
