Bananas are GREAT ... unless you are on a comp prep diet and they for forbidden or something, that is one fruit I try to have all the time...

I wouldn't recommend eating it before bedtime, but earlier meals, absolutely

I'm no expert, IP, but everytime this has happened to me in the past, it was an indication that I wasn't eating enough beforehand and my body was holding on to every last bit that it could.

Case in point: I was eating 1000-1200 cals to lose these annoying 3lbs I had gained during a summer on the beach, and for the life of me, my scale wouldn't budge. I went to Vienna for 4-5 days and ate a load of pastries and croissants while there. I was sure I had done some added damage only to weigh myself when I came home to find out those few pounds I had desperately been trying to lose gone. So go figure.....the same happened again when I was in India and ate loads of rich, creamy curries with tons of heavy buttery naan bread.

HOW true these words are

Thanks Gymgurl! It is so wonderful to be back in the gym!

It was so funny, yesterday Nelmsjer and I walked into the gym and just stood at the entrance and took a deep breath in and then looked at each other and agreed that we had missed the "gym" smell so much!! (yes, we are big fat NERDS!!)
