So, something interesting happened this morning. I used my body fat analyzer thingamajiggy and it says that I've dropped another % point. So, now my body fat is 20.3% It was 21.7% a month ago. That means that all of this extra eating my body has been insisting upon is due to a muscle gain and not a weight gain. That feels good to know. I'm so glad I've got the BFA machine because it has really helped keep me sane in times where I'm sure I'm gaining weight or plateauing.
I think I know where I've been gaining that extra muscle -- in my legs. Although my jeans are staying the same in the waist, they are getting awfully tight on my legs. In fact, my "straigh-leg" jeans are starting to feel and look like skinny jeans. Now, if I could just gain a little bit of this muscle in my butt, I would be totally happy. I still have no ass.
That said, I'm still working on getting myself better under control. I can do that be eating better foods, making better choices, and drinking more water. All of those things help me to maintain control.
Today's weigh-in has me down 1.2 pounds since yesterday. I'm still a bit puffy in the fingers so I know I've probaly got a pound or so of water weight left to lose. Avoiding sugary foods will help the most on that one. I puff up more from sugar than from salt.
Here's to another great day -- back on plan!
