Guest guest Posted September 27, 2002 Report Share Posted September 27, 2002 Hi CJ, Nice to have you join in. 7th week...over half way there! How is it going so far for you? I am on C2 but it has been six months since I worked out before now. I let myself get worse off than I was before starting the first challenge. :-P So in a way I feel like I am starting another first challenge. Glad you have joined us.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2002 Report Share Posted September 29, 2002 I hope your week has gone better than mine! I am hanging in, working out, eating clean but had NO progress this week. I have felt 'puffy' all week and don't know what could be doing it. My rings have been tighter so it's all over. It't PMS or TOM so can't blame the usual suspects I had a good wk 5 (lost 5 " ) (this was end of wk 6) so am going to review that wks diet and possibly eat that wks food again to see if the lack of progress is food related. I did skip meals this wk 'cause of chaos but haven't been bad otherwise. (I'm betting your sorry you asked me ;-) darlene > > > Hi all! My name is CJ, and I guess I'm the newest member here.

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 Did you have a higher than normal sodium intake last week? > > > > Hi all!

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 Thanks, Todd :-) I don't think the sodium was higher than previous wks. I am trying to use a little salt as possible, which is almost none in the foods we cook. What I wonder about is the sodium content of dairy products. I had a baked potato twice last wk, actually only half / serving. We also had pasta for one meal. I am keeping the portions small and it was ww pasta... Those were the only 'new' foods I think I had last wk. Oh! I did have choc shakes more than I normally do. I have been using Atkin's shakes because the protein is 20g. They are low carb, so have to add a carb food. I am trying EAS quick stir this week. Carbs are 25g / protein is 21g... IF you do get more sodium in your diet, and are drinking so much water already, how do you get rid of it? Dumb question perhaps but sometimes I feel over-saturated with water already darlene > > > > > Hi all!

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 Darlene- a couple things I can think of- an increase in sodium will cause " puffiness, " as will not drinking enough water. Hang in there- sometimes we all plateau- other times it seems we take a step back, but all the while things ARE moving forward. > > > > Hi all!

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 Thanks, Matt :-) I know, sodium / not enough water are usually to blame so just need to be on the look out for that sodium .. thanks for the support darlene > > > > > Hi all!
