Sort of upset, but not really
I am mainly just venting, but I am alittle frustrated this week. It is “that time” for me,a nd I ahve so many issues with it, since it is only about two or three times (never more than 4 times a year) a year it, is a killer!!!!! I ahve not had the energy, not the real drive to work out. i mena I have pushed myself a few days and made myself do it, but with the cramps and the bloating (my gym shoes were so tight yesterday it was not even funny!!!!!!!!!!!) and the nausea, it it almost impossible to have a good week. I am proud however that I did manage to sick to my diet this entire time, though the want to binge and have snacks and chocolate was almost unbearable at times, btu I have been good this entire time. I have been avoiding the scale cause I know at this time I usually put on about 5-7 pounds, so I ddin’t want to put myself thru that, it would just upset me and then I might not have stayed away from allthe things I usually use for comfort at this time, but the night before last I was just really curious, so I got on the scale. I was astonished, not only did I not gain the pounds, I was down two pounds!!! I was exstatic!!! And that was weighing at like 6:00pm, which I never do. I always weigh in the mornings when you are closest to your real weight. So this morning I was liek what the hell, and I got ont he scale, and it says I am up 4 pounds!!! I was liek what the hell. Plus my “time” seems to be starting all over again. It had acted like it was coming to an end and now this morning it is up in full force. I feel like pooh and I am upset about the weight. SORRY GUYS I KNOW THIS IS WAY TOO MUCH INFORMATION!!!! But I am just getting frustrated. I can’t work out like I want to, but at least I can manage my diet still. My “official” weigh in isn’t till tommorrow so I guess I will see how it is then, but I am just a little frustrated.Normally i am all about how much I love being a strong black woman, but not today!! BEING A WOMAN SUCKS RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!! URGGGGG!!! Just venting. Thanks guys

Oh and Angela, this doesn’t change anything. I am still gunning for ya!! HA HA I will be in a 16 when we go to Vegas!!!!!!!!!!!! A 16 AT LEAST!!!!!!!!! 

Don’t get too discouraged….although it does suck having to be a women during those times! Hey…you could be going thru it and be up 10 lbs….
Stay strong!
Vent away girlfriend. It’s certainly warranted. I hate “that time” UGH UGH UGH…. doesn’t it just make you want to go out with a paintball gun and shoot every tree in site? LOL It’s the only time I crave chocolate. Just a tip, works for me, and maybe will work for you…. if you make yourself get some cardio in, just even a moderate walk for 30 minutes, the flow may lessen up and give you some relief. It does for me.
Hang it there… k?
Hang in there TOM really sucks, but it something all women get to go through. and yes I will say it again… it really sucks. However, if you are doing what you know you should when it is gone, you will be happy.
Hope you feel better soon and don’t pay any attention to that scale right now.
Keep up the hard work. And just remember being a strong person, man or woman, does NOT mean that you aren’t allowed moments of weakness or aggravation! What makes you strong is not wallowing in those moments and bouncing back.
You know it’s alright by me to vent. TOM should be leaving soon then you can resume regular activities. Don;t even worry about anything until after tha. You know you made me smile; I’m glad your gunning for me honey; go right ahead; I’ll save all my 16 for you because I’ll be in my 12’s lol lol lol Don’t stress about anything that causes TOM to be prolonged it will end soon okay! Just keep that pretty smile and think about VEGAS, that size 16 and yeah you keep forgetting about your convertible lol lol So I remind you! Have a great day!!!
Hang in there!
Pull it to gether girl…. I know the frustration you are feeling. But you know you are so focused and driven that once “TOM” is gone… you will be right BACK on top of things. Its evident that you really want this BAD.. because the feelings to binge and fall off track with your diet were there… but you being the strong person you are… SAID HECKS no and keep moving ahead… before you know it…. TOM will be gone, you will be back to your old routine… and SIZE 16 will be looking very HOT AND SEXY on you…..
Better start shopping for that MINI and HOOKER BOOTS for VEGAS NOW!!!!!! 
I’m sorry, you are going thru this
Good for you on sticking to your plan, you will get there!
Thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!! You guys are the best!!!!!!!!!!

Hang in there Sis. At the rate you’re going you’ll accomplish that 16 by October. Oh and when you get that convertible you are more than welcome to pass on the Lincoln to your big sis.
