Today I did the Wii Fit again (it's an actual rest day on EA Active Sports--I checked twice lol). I did one of the Wii Fit Plus routine thingies. It was 41 minutes long (but took like an hour!) and a mixture of cardio (running), hula hooping (which I suck at btw), strength training (squats, lunges etc) yoga and posture/balance/relaxation stuff (a lot of it is standing still and focusing on not moving at all--not easy for me to do I guess lol).
Anyway I got it over and done with. Yaay. Now I can relax.
I made an interesting observation this morning...actually yesterday morning, but I wanted to see if it was just a 1 day thing. Since I started exercising daily, I have been gaining weight daily. I am so used to weighing myself daily from the HCG diet and staying within the +/- 2 lbs that it stuck and I continue to do it. Day 1+2, it was like +.6lbs, yesterday and today have been a whopping 2lbs a day increase! Protocol calls for a steak day, but I can't do red meat (it makes me gain even more) so I guess I'll do an egg day. What the hizzy though? You would think exercise would help you lose. The other thing that bugs me is that my pants are tighter! I will be starting the diet on the 10th...I'm REALLY tempted to start early, but I should follow the protocol and do the 8 wks I'm supposed to (I'm about to start phase 3). Whatever. We'll see. It's only been 5 days. If I continue to gain, I'll just quit the whole thing.
Haha! I'm TOTALLY j/k. I'm not gonna quit. Especially since I already know that I can do this. I'm a star! (deja vu).
Working tomorrow, so it'll be a late post.
Have a good night!
I can do all things in Christ who gives me strength! (Phil 4:13)

I think it's really cool you're doing this again and I've been doing my own little exercise challenge (mostly seeing how long I can go exercising every day before I take a break.)
I gained weight after I got married, so I'm determined to lose it again, but I've been restricting my diet for the last few days and the numbers on the scale keep going up - so I'm with you - WTH? I'm telling myself it is a side effect of changing my lifestyle so quickly and maybe that is what you are going through to. Just stick with it and trust your doctors!

I thought I was the only one! I've theorized that muscles swell when used or some stupid stuff like that, but I hate it when I start a new workout program because NOTHING fits and I feel horrible.
