Re: I hate the scale today
I'm with you on TOM water retention; I'm like a camel in the Sierra Dessert every month. When we're in the TOM mode during Induction it plays mean tricks on us. Hang in there!!!
Pssst.....put the scale away until after Induction

Re: I hate the scale today
Loana, maybe you should consider posting your menu for a day so that everyone can take a peak and see if they have any suggestions to offer.
My big problem is WATER. So chug away girls

Re: I hate the scale today
YA TOM is such an evil little thing I am a major gainer at TOM seriously 4 pounds I would be happy with my gain is anywhere from 8-16 lbs Yes that's right 16 lbs, it all comes down to hormones and when you are having your TOM your homone Progesterone is up and as you ahve your TOM it drops and then BOOM day 4 or so of tom you ahve a nice WHooshie. The scale suck. The worst time to weigh of any time. My measurements go up and everything. I am not weighing right now and OHHH so much happier that I am not.

Re: I hate the scale today
I have been reading about alot of ya'll doing this. I might be able to do it at home (maybe, whole family is following Atkins, they may have me removed), but at work, which is in a doctor's office? It is more tempatation than I can take. And not real sure why I do it. I have only been going for 7 months and have stalls for about 3 weeks at a time. I wish I could "get off the scales".Originally posted by La_LaPlease join the No Scales challenge!!! I did and it's such a burden off your shoulders not weighing in every few days...

Re: I hate the scale today
Thanks everyone!!!!!!!!!!! heheh I will **try** to put the scale away LOL gosh is like sometimes I weigh a couple of times a day.. I am obsessed LOL
I am afraid of posting my menu as I really do not know how to cook much of anything so my foods are blah and you all are going to laugh at me LOL
but here it goes soooo far
breakfast-2 scrambled eggs
water
lunch-cooking it now... 1 medium chicken breast with some bacon
snack-1oz cream cheese
dinner-not sure yet I need to research Texas Land and Cattle as is FIL birthday today and we are meeting them there after hubby gets off from work I am thiking of a salad with no dressing and I'll take my 0 carb ranch dressing ina ziploc LOL and a steak?
what can I add.. I like simple things.. if it has too many ingredients for me to cook I will more than likely not cook it.. I really have no problem eating the same ol same ol!
advice?
go easy on me I am PMSing ROTFLOL

Re: I hate the scale today
Hey Loana ~ I am just like you - i don't really cook very complicated foods and am very happy with simple, easy things, even if that is deemed "boring" by others - i am fine with it! From looking at your menu, i think you are like me, and not getting enough veggies in, especially throughout the day. I need to work on that. But that could be part of it... i don't know!
