What does it take these days?

I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong ... have I finally lost the knack of weightloss? I GAINED a big fat 700gms this week.

I'm in training for a damn triathlon and I'm gaining weight ... what the hell is up with that?

hmmmm ok ... I cant stress about this right now ... I have a 300mtr swim, a 10km bike ride and a 3km run to accomplish in less than four weeks and my body has decided it wasnt to process its energy intake differently. How bloody frustrating.

Maybe I'm not eating enough to cope with the energy output. Maybe I'm picking the wrong foods to fuel my body right now ...

I am feeling at the peak of fitness, for my size, I am feeling fit and healthy and ready to take on the world (except for this sniffle right now) LOL.

I feel normal, I take my measurements and they are coming down, I see photos and have to do a double take ... yet the scales climb? hmmmmmmm

Anyhow, all I can do is keep on doing what I'm doing - tracking my food, exercising well, sticking to points and drink my water - something has got to give right? So long as it isnt my brain! LOL


Here's my Mum and hubby, taken on New Years Day 06 - what a gorgeous day it was too! My inlaws garden with its gorgeous flowers. I didnt have a hangover! woohoo - wonder what I'll look like this time next year.

Don't worry about the lack of weight loss - you know it will start to come off again soon. By the way you look better than fantastic... you look "normal". I remember you saying lately that you felt this way - isn't that the coolest feeling?

Frustrating but you are doing all the right things - so I'm sure it will happen.

OMG when I read your diary it like reading about myself. I didn't post last night because I gained 300grams..... it hurt because like you I am doing so much exercise and I am tracking... maybe the choices are what is going wrong.

I talked to my trainer and we are going to look at everything and see what we can do...

It is hard!!!

I am not the only one going through this woohooooo. I so understand how you are feeling.

Love CM
