My scale still isn't budging, so I decided to take the advice I've received to up my calorie intake for a day or two. Of course, if I'm going to do that, you know I'm going to do it in a very enjoyable way! Last night, I bought a pint of Haagen Dazs ice cream. . Vanilla Swiss Almond (with chocolate covered almond bits) and enjoyed a reasonable-sized bowl (then went back to the freezer for an extra spoonful. . . three times).
The results? The scale is up a pound today! YIKES!!! I just put the rest of the ice cream in the sink and ran water over the carton until it all melted! People, don't try this at home! :)
Er, maybe I was supposed to up the calories with protein? You think? :)

hahahahahaha....perhaps!
Wait... I thought ice cream was protein too! Oooops...
Well it was worth a shot!
Ice cream has some protein in it, right? It's just all the other bad stuff in there that gets you!
Swear to God, our bodies like to play mind games with us!!! At least you tried it and now know it doesn't work - or maybe it was just 'ice cream' weight and it will 'melt' away real quick. Let us know :)
I'd buy a new set of scales. (and smash the old ones for being so mean)
And I'd give up exercise too, it's bound to be bad for you :-))

I plateaued this week so, yesterday, I had an all protein, low carbs (aside from some soft veggies) meal and broke the plateau by 400grams.
Maybe it is all about the protein. I wish ice-cream had more protein!
