Instead, I felt rundown, and I didn't have as much power in my workouts. I'm short but I've always been at the higher end of healthy BMI range (overweight is only 2 more pounds Fuck the BMI chart), so even when I was at my lightest I wasn't underweight or anything... So I ended up putting back on about 5-7 lbs fairly quickly and now I feel great running wise. But, that number on the scale keeps fucking with my head.... I wish I weren't so vain because I feel great. But, damned if I don't miss the lower number on the scale even if I felt like shit.... I hope you are able to get back on track with your goals. Try not to be so hard on yourself, especially since things are coming together for you running wise.Dollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04308365395261709731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8838911823399772442.post-79013432804168126102016-04-11T11:25:20.748-05:002016-04-11T11:25:20.748-05:00Good luck!

I've lost about 7 gallons of fluid in the last 24 hours alone I think. Miserable. Working from home and resting today, thinking the worst of it is over. I decided the scale was the silver lining, even though I know those pounds will be back when I'm rehydrated. Haven't come up with a good plan to get me back where I feel good though.
