WW Update!

I GAINED .4 lbs. Yes, it's less than a pound, but I was feeling a bit discouraged. I worked out hard last week and ate a pretty clean diet. So, I was a bit confused at the gain. This morning, I sent Aaron an e-mail looking for a pep talk. This is what I wrote:

"Good morning Aaron! So…I went to WW last night and discovered that I have GAINED .4 lb. I know, it’s less than a pound but I was really hoping for a loss since I worked out hard last week and did well on the food front. Last week I lost 2 lbs and did not so good on the food front, so I’m not sure what is going on. I do feel a difference in clothing-so I know something is happening, but the damn scale irritated me. Just looking for some words of wisdom please!

Thanks…

Nicole"

This is his reply:

"Nicole,

Your at the point where looking at the scale every week is going to be difficult. In other words you are getting in shape! Also you have started strength training so you might be building some muscle. Give it another week and if you don't see a loss we will up your cardio. You are doing great so don't get down on yourself! Believe me everything is as it should be. Like you said you can feel a difference and that is all that matters.

Believe in yourself girl!

YAY! I feel much better now! And I'm sore today-chest, back, legs-yikes! So, I know yesterday was a great workout!
