Hiya Ginger! I haven't done any weights this week -- only cardio -- so I haven't even bothered posting. Will be hitting the gym tonight for weights, though, so will be back with that workout later this evening. All of a sudden this week, I was having very bad stomach problems (like too bad to hit the gym for fear of embarrassment!). I couldn't figure out WHAT in the heck was going on. Then, I narrowed it down to stupid GUM! It's the xylitol in the sugar-free gum I had been chewing. Threw it away and my stomach is now FINE. That was a stupid mistake that cost me 3 good days in the gym!

So, even though eats have been good, I've FELT like a bloated pig! Scale still being nice to me, however, so I'm expecting that I'll feel even better once all this xylitol crap is out of my system. Never again!

I did, however, keep up with my NEAT and cardio because I figured walking and running outside was safe (by myself ) even with the gastro issues. How lovely.
