I stayed at home for a week and it did not do any good but worse! I think I gained more than I used to. I cannot really monitor the total pounds that I gained because I cannot find the weighing scales that we have, but I know I did gained some. It's very easy to determine really. How? Clothes do not fit anymore tsk tsk tsk. There's this one top that I really love. I use to wear it during my jogging days in Bulacan but now I can't! My tummy--or muffin top as I say it is way way bigger than ever. Grrr! Made more frustrated. I hope to loose this by March because we have a wedding to attend to in April. Goodluck to me.
