21 day fix week 1 - Upper Fix / The scale is being totally weird

Its been a long time since I really loved a workout...I loved doing upper fix.  I tend to try and to total body workout because I have limited time, but this reminded me that its nice to be able to focus completely on one area.

I used 8lb and 5 lb weights and pretty much stuck to the non modified version except for pushups and planks.  I got on the ground for everything else.  A nice surprise, since I've been doing pilates for 2 months the crunches and other ab work didn't kill me.

Amber talks, but I'm more concerned with pushing out as many reps at my own speed than whatever she is saying.

If you're reading this, I'm not a beachbody coach.  I've been checking out review to preview what's to come and I've noticed in 99% of the reviews which are usually positive the person is or wants to be a beachbody coach.  I consider that a conflict of interest, but I could be wrong.

Scheduling...21 day fix is basically a straight 21 days of working out. The 7th day is yoga, which is stretching, but I"m not a fan of.  I also believe I should have one day a week where I don't do any kind of workout no matter how relaxing it is.  So I'm not doing yoga fix, but since I started late I won't have a day off, so I may try and double up saturday.

So I just went to youtube and I want to do the pilates so I'm going to do them tonight, take them out of the and skip them on thurs, which should put me back on a track.

So yeah the scale.


I've been the same weight since..monday?  To the ounce. 364.2.  I was convince my scale was broken so I got on with an 8lb weight..and it registered the 8 lbs.  I haven't been weighing before or during my period so no idea if this is normal or not.  It is frustrating I'll say that.  I refuse to panic and in the past some how this would give me license to fall off the wagon, but I'm focused.  I am going to try and not have a cheat anything until my period if over.  Fingers crossed.

Quick Recap

Well I am ashamed it has been this long since I posted. I got down to 306 after much not eating and too much exercising, but after the trip to Jamaica I haven't gotten back in the groove of things. I think alot of that has to do with issues with the Ex. Those may not be settled, but i am not as emotionally invested as I won't was. With IE I was able to stay at 320 or under. I am 312 now, and focused once again. I am not nearly as strict as I was, which might also explain why I haven't gotten under 300. Anyway....Thats where I am at now. Will try and write more later.

Up 3 lbs.

Well I just couldn't what to weigh myself and I am up 3 lbs. Normally I would be devastated, but Everything 3fc has taught says 1. I should probably weight myself in the morning. 2. It is not the end of the world. I also have to admit i overate yesterday, and I had a big meal Saturday . So the plans is to stick to what I am supposed to do and weigh again Saturday morning. The guy I am seeing will be up Saturday morning, and it is Super bowl weekend, so eating is not going to be the greatest this weekend. Everything else is ok. Added Later I just realized I got cocky. I assumed since I had had all this great weight loss I could eat whatever. I have not been eating intuitively. So I am glad I did the weighin and will try and do better.
