Pow! Right in the Kisser


I reiterate my former stance that hormones are evil. I've done everything right this week, food, fluid intake, distribution of calories, exercise, and the only thing left to point a finger at is hormones for sucker punching my weigh-in this morning.
Edit: So I whined about my 1/2 pound gain to Chris this morning. He asked me all the right questions about cycles and hormones and said all the right things, but could tell I was being a baby about it. It's too early to re-test anything, but he got me up on the scale anyway. I was quite dehydrated. Not sure how that's possible if I'm retaining fluid and drinking 10+ glasses a day, but more significantly...my body fat% was down! That was the boost I needed. The rest of my workout went smoothly and thanks to some serious stretching yesterday, I felt good when I left. Take that hormones!

  1. So Julie... I just read through your entire blog and I am absolutely sure that you have been in my brain. I can't tell you how many times I have felt and thought the same things you have written about. I too was an athelete in my younger years and have been searching for that person that I used to be. Maybe we can help each other find that person. Hang in there Julie... we will get there!
