Burn the Fat - Feed the Muscle

Well, I hope that is what is going on with me this week. I gained one pound this week. This is the first time I have gained weight since I started this way of life back in January. Sometimes the scales is not our friend and not a true reflection of what is going on with our bodies as a whole. When we feel better, look better, and have so much more energy than ever before, things can't be wrong. I weigh myself everyday just to keep myself on track from day to day. At one point this week I weighed 246 pounds for a two pound weight loss for the week. But then I always log my weight on Tuesday mornings. Well this morning I was up. Up one pound from last Tuesday. It was a little shocking but not really all that surprising. I have been actually eating more this week than I had been. All good healthy foods of course but I don't let myself go hungry at any time. I have been fueling the fire and have been doing the same workout routine. It's time to bump up the workouts. It's all about burning more calories than you consume that way you "Burn the Fat and Feed the Muscle". As we all know muscle weighs more than fat so hopefully I really lost about two pounds of fat this week and gained 3 pounds of muscle. Hmmm....works for me anyway. So I will keep on keepin' on.
