I'm not reporting in until Friday, but since I went to the beach on Sunday and ate fried scallops and onion rings, I gained 2.5 lbs., lost half a pound and now am stuck.
I hear ya -- seems like every time I join the challenge, my weight goes up instead of down! I am up a lb. from when I started and have not even been "bad". Then again, I haven't been particularly "good" with food, though I have been riding more than usual. It's still too hot to run here. Last year this time we were getting some rain and cooler mornings, but this year, it's steaming hot and sunny every morning. 83.5F with FULL sun when I got up at 6:45, and gets rapidly hotter after that. DH is still running, but I just can't do it. I'm weak!
