argh. no, really. ARRRGGGGHHHH.
i’m frustrated.
i’ve been working out for nearly two weeks, almost every day. it’s more than i’ve really ever worked out, with the possible exception of when i used to walk home from middle school, about a mile and a half, most every day. but considering i’m doing at least double that most days…yes, i’m working out more than i ever had.
and, yet, i’m GAINING weight.
that’s right.
GAINING.
now, before you’re all “well, are you eating like a crazy person?” the answer is no.
i am trying to eat less. am i always successful? no. last week was foodapalooza, so i was happy to just be maintaining. but now? now that i’m back? and have been trying to eat less/smarter?
gaining. GAINING!
i am so incredibly frustrated. if i wasn’t doing this for something bigger and better than me, i’d be tempted to stop. but i won’t.
but i guess i’d like to see SOME results. something. it’s not like i don’t have weight to lose. i do. so i shouldn’t have any trouble.
sigh.
and if i can’t see results, can i please stop looking for them?
sigh.

Gaining MUSCLE. Theoretically, that should happen for the first little while, then you will start losing weight in total (though still gaining muscle).
As I do not have any fat OR muscle, and am merely a bag of skin filled with sawdust and bones, I can speak only theoretically.

Its overwhelming . . . overwhelmingly FRUSTRATING! I sympathize.
