MAN, I'M EXHAUSTED AND FEELING THE EXERCISE...AND MY WEIGHT IS UP UGH!!!!!!!!!!! I walked my mile this morning a little slower. My shoe was bugging me and I have a pain in one leg behind the knee area which has been flaring up the past 18 hours.

I calculated the number of push-up I did yesterday morning for this new challenge and the test was 48. Then last night we did cardio/endurance/strength/speed fitness stations. I had 35 more push ups to do in class. My arms (esp. underarm/shoulder area and abs are really feeling it today. I also did 25 sit p/ crunches yesterday morning and 35 in class.

After karate class I counted my calories I had eaten very few, 90 snack, 180 lunch, about 7 grapes snack, 180 supper, canteloupe for dessert, so I figured I'd better make something else, but didin't need any carbs. I fixed 2 90% lean angus burgers with 1 slice cheese (half on each) I ate them on a plate with mustard. I drank several bottles of water yeaterday (i think 5 maybe 6) and had a couple large glasses of water.

I really expected the scales to go down, but they were up .8 pounds.
FRUSTRATING,
I WANT OUT OF THE 190's I've been here forever. This is the weight I yo yo at for so long before getting pregnant and not caring about my diet. 192-198 for so many weeks. HOW DO I BREAK OUT OF THIS??????? I know I need patience, but its hard when I'm exercising and eating so much better than before and yet I still yo-yo

Oh well, my venting is done for now. I need to go teach my son his reading , math and Spelling lesson for today. Spelling will be a new subject for him. I think he will like it for a while.

Don't get discouraged.. It's hard to say what may be the culprit of the .8 gain, but look at things like water retention (did you eat a lot of sodium?)... is TOM coming? Don't give up!!! You WILL get out of the 190's!! Hope son's studies go well today... spelling was one of my favorite subjects!

Spelling lesson today was only working on sounds for lesson one. He got frustrated when he mis pronoucned. He wants the sounds to be like the name of the letters Y sould say "www" and W should say "ddd" etc... He doesn't like to be wrong and really gets mad when I say we can't just pretend because he needs to learn the correct way. Reading he got upset with because when he read the story two sentences about a picture (pic was covered until he read) He tried making up the story how he thought it should be instead of trying to sound out the words. Yesterday's story was "This cat is sick. This cat is sad." So today when the first word was "This he imediately wanted the next word to be cat, but it was IS. When I asked him to look at it and sound it out he just repeated cat and then said I can't read!!!!!!!!! we eventually got there after a brief crying fit. I think he is very tired, but won't admit it. I know I am. However, I got out the math book (actual text) today for the first time. He had a blast. Week one has 6 lessons /pages to complete. He did all 6 and wanted to keep going so I let him do 3 of the next week's sheets. He got mad when I made him quit for today. So far it is simple week onle count objects and circle the correct number. all numbers0-9 are given in order. Week two count objects and given 2 choices trace correct one and crossout the incorrect one. He got them all correct and drew his own stickers (smiley faces) so he wouldn't waste all his on the sticker sheet. I drew a star on each page.

You will break through that 190 barrier shortly. Try to watch your overall calories (weekly average) carefully and include one day a week where you eat what you want, within reason.
