Not off to a good start

[scm]

Well, not totally true. My workout this morning went well.
But when I put my jeans on this morning they were snug. Make that very snug! Ugh!! And no, they weren't fresh out of the dryer either.
So, now I'm bummed. I know I'm getting bigger, I just didn’t quite realize how much...so, then I go into the bathroom and was brushing my hair and notice how nice the sun was reflecting on this one piece of hair. Huh?? One piece of hair? ONE PIECE OF HAIR!!??!!! Could it be??? NOOO! I found my first grey hair! I can’t believe it. This was all before 8 am. What else could happen, or shouldn't I ask?

EEK!!! How old are you, Susan? My family goes grey early. I think I found my first grey hair before I was 20! Hair dye is my friend

I feel your pain about the jeans. I was the same yesterday with two skirts, and this morning I got on the scale for my monthly weigh in and I haven't lost a bleeping OUNCE!!! I'm so frustrated. My goal is to lose 10 lbs, but really, I'd be happy with 5. But zero is just too depressing to contemplate!

Just think... your day has nowhere to go but up!

Susan, I got my first gray hair at 27. I don't know how many are up there now and I wouldn't care to count. I just keep piling up the dye jobs.;-)

Have you been lifting real heavy for your legs? I stopped doing GS-Legs three weeks ago and have just been doing the Low Max blast, my Imax 3 "practice sessions" because those plie squats and plyos (even though I can't do that many) work my thighs well, floor work and lots of kickboxing. I've also relied on the moving work in yoga and poses that work the legs isometrically. Seems to work well for me.

I hope you have a better day.

I started going gray at 25. That's also when I started coloring my hair!

Susan - My kids tease me about my gray hair but I tell them they put them there. My hairdresser is my best friend.

Have you been eating salty foods lately? Perhaps you are retaining water?

Susan,

I'm not sure how old you are, but I am 22 and got my first gray last year. I have about 10 of them in various spots on my head that I pluck out monthly lol. Aging is no fun.

SCM - remember too that your muscles are all going to be pumped, especially leg muscles after a cardio or leg-lifting workout, for a time immediately after your workout. That could be a large (pardon the pun) reason for the snugness. When you work out, circulatory blood is rerouted from the core out to the working muscles, pumping them up; also, during a workout you're usually hydrating throughout and even though you might be sweating, you're also holding in some of that extra water.

Don't worry about it too much.
