What dose your meal plan look like? I Rely on GODS word to see me through each moment of every day He is my strength. 1 Corinthians 10 No temptation has overtalen you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

Take a look and see if this applies to your situation. https://www.turbokick.com/wblog/?p=709 What it all boils down to is water retention from doing a new workout or pushing our muscles further than normal. If you can spend years beating yourself up mentally and remain standing, you can HANDLE a few muscle cramps and cravings. A little pain has NOTHING on feeling insecure. Remember that next time you wanna quit. You can do this!

I skipped 1 day and dropped 5lbs overnight. Weird. If I skip the rest of the month I'll reach goal! (Kidding!) Eat What you Love ~ Love What you Eat

Overexercising can create some water retention due to muscle swelling , Try to track fat %, measures with a tape and calorie deficits instead without looking at the scale too often. If you are tracking your activities/intake correctly the result will come without doubt. Checking the scale too often is one of the biggest mistakes I can think of when trying to acquire a new lifestyle

jwill77nc2 is correct. Also, if there is NO asterisk (*) after the food or exercise then that number will not be counted in the Challenges and Contests and Mini Challenges this program offers.
