Too Much Of A Good Thing?

So we are a few weeks into the local version of the Greatest Loser. Weekly weigh ins take place on Monday's. So far so good. Those of us in the contest wear a simple elastic bracelet and if our weight goes up we lose it and Mary Ann wears them.

I still have mine. I don't know my weight. It has gone down obviously. The number on the scale is just a number. It doesn't really tell the whole story. For me it is more about body composition and body fat percentage.

There were some people getting weighed who went up and they were not really pleased. They have been doing LOTS of different fitness classes and they can't understand how they cannot have lost weight.

Could it be that they are doing TOO much? Are they eating ENOUGH? What are they eating? How much water are they drinking? How much sleep are they getting?

The body wants to hold onto fat. You've got to feed it to help it think that food is in abundance.

My gluten free healthy eating plan is on track and I feel that this has helped me greatly. Lots of protein, vegetables, fruits and healthy fats. Not a ton of variety but I am okay with that. Keep it simple.

I do a few fitness classes each week, have been walking a every day and doing some heavy resistance training twice per week.
