NOTE TO SELF: Don't go into the dressing rooms at the mall again until you've lost more weight/inches. You just get depressed and down on yourself.
My bodyfat % has gone from 32% to 27%, the scale has barely moved, and I've lost about an inch in my waist. (Which today, while on my period, is NO inches on my waist. Don't you love being a woman?) I'm so impatient.
I have read somewhere that when your body is burning fat, your fat becomes really jiggly and loose, like Jell-o. More circulation in your fat equals a greater chance that it will be used for energy. So I guess that's good. But man, does loose, jiggly fat ever look icky. Hurry up and burn off!
I didn't end up going to the gym this morning. I'm trying to make it tomorrow, Saturday, but I'm also going to a photo shoot for work tomorrow an hour away for most of the day, so if it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. It'll just be my break between stages.
My diet has been good. I'm at 93% compliance for the week so far, but I have been sneaking a piece of a new chocolate bar I found - Mo's Bacon Bar.
This may come as a shock, but it's delicious! Like a big, syrupy pile of pancakes with bacon. I don't even particularly like bacon anymore, but the pairing of salty and sweet is incredible.
That being said, I'm glad I keep it at work, where I can control myself. If it was with me at home while I'm on my period, it would be gone in a day and I'd feel terrible.
Ohh, chocolate...
