Hi LADIES ...
What a week of highs it sure has been ,I was up a kg last week, and I was rather perplexed about it as I was doing everything "right " exercising 45 min and eating 1200 calories, but I took another look at my exercise journal, and menu tracker, and saw that I was in a rut, my routine was to routine ,if you know what I mean, so I decided to change my exercise strategy, to 30 min, but HIGHER intensity training , on the treadmill and rower machine, instead of more time and LOWER intensity..I also decided to change my menu from 3 carbs a day to 2 and add extra fruit in ,and more good fats, {avo},I also cut my red meat intake, from 2x a week to 1x and had fish for lunch ,with salad, instead of THE USUAL veg soup for lunch, or snacking ... Well, within the last two days, I have LOST the 1kg I put on, and I am down an extra 400g.. MY weekly Weigh is on Friday, actually but I COULD not resist the scale this week as I wanted to see if my "new" plan of action was working for me and not against me.
Yesterday was the start of PMS ,and usually I AM UP in kg on the scale, or my weight stands still,till I am done ..BUT to my surprise, I have been LOSING weight ... NOT sure if it is the change in food and exercise that has done it, or if it is PMS doing the opposite to me than it did before, hahahah... I also changed back from 40mg to 30mg, and find that is has been better for me, not such a fog brain, and no buzzing , but I do wake p tired now where with 40mg I woke up ready to clean everybodies house for them , hahaha, it could be that I am tired because of the extra intense work outs, that I am sleeping so deeply, and wake up feeling tired?? not sure ..but I AM NOT OUT OF STEAM, though, I STILL HAVE ENERGY just not at such a hyped degree, For me right now I feel 30mg is more than enough, as I AM eating ALL my meals and loving it , and feel it is enough calories for the exercise I am doing right now ,only hitch is, I thought it was the 4omg that made me constipated and the muesli I had been eating , once I eliminated the muesli ,I was good to go, but now this week, I find my tummy is not regular again , maybe I should be having EXTRA water ?? I have between, 1,380 ml - 2,070ml a day.. my bottles are 345ml each ,I have between 4 and 6 of those bottles a day.. would love to hear your input on this ..Will let you all know tomorrow what my final weight is for the week.. GO ....GO ....GOAL
