Frustration & Fatique

Yesterday was a foul follow up to my gloriously warm and sunny Saturday.  Cold.  Cold. Cold. and Damp. Today it is raining.  The rest of the week has rain in the forecast.  Every single day of the week.

Add to that the return of the work pants wedgie yesterday.  I seem to have "regained" three pounds.  Which seems very odd as I am following a 1200 calorie diet (exactly with no fudging) and doing lots of physical labor/activity everyday.  G thinks it's water retention.

My day was spent shrivering in the cold at work, wiping my nose and digging my pants out of the crack of my butt.  I was tempted by the deep fried peanuts at work, but I said NO and kept to my diet plan.  I switched from my sausage patties to bacon in the breakfast omelet and I think the bacon is way more salty--therefore the water retention.  Not peeing as much.

Anyway, not much to report from the epicenter of the "Return Of The Ice Age" here in Maine.  Last time this happened (1992) it was 54 and wet on the 4th of July.  I had the furnace and woodstove running.

  1. Ug. That is miserable. Expected in March and maybe April, but by the end of MAY it should not be cold and wet.

  2. Sorry about the weather and the wedgie. We've got the same here. Gloomy.
    Flush out your system by drinking more water than you usually do. It makes everything clear out faster and usually results in a 3-4lb loss for me. You're eating a different way and large amounts of meat. Salty meat. Pushing the aqua will clear out your whole system faster-if you get my drift..
