The scale went up! :O
How frustrating!! I've been counting calories again for a few weeks and I just went and bought a scale for $7.00 at Target last week, not digital. I weighed myself this morning after working my butt off at the gym all week, counting calories and sick with the flu yesterday and I still managed to gain 2 pounds this week :?:
|
That happened to me this week too. I have been super good and working out every day and I gain 2 pounds. I was so frustrated. But my lovely hubby made me feel good so that I wouldn't just give up.
|
That happens to me too, but a lot of time it has to do with my cycle, I always gain a couple of lbs right before my period.

Keep going, Dawn; our bodies are so complex, we'll never figure 'em out! Just keep trying and you will be losing again!
Have faith! You're doing the right things! |
Don't let it frustrate you. You are in this for the long haul. Yep...it's nice to see a loss every week, but it may not always happen. I've had a gain the past 2 weeks and it's certainly driving me a little nuts, but I know I can't let it get to me. I've come too far to let a couple weeks derail me. Just keep on keeping on!!! :high:

It could be too much salt lately, muscles retaining water to repair after exercise, the planetary alignment, or a bandicoot farting in Northern Australia for all we know. Seriously, just make sure you are measuring and counting calories properly and move as much as possible and your body will sort itself.

Does your old scale say the same thing as your new scale? Did you weigh before on an old scale, and then weigh this week on your new scale?
Different scales can sometimes be off by that much. Jay |

So don't fret....you probably didn't gain.Pick one scale and only one scale. |
Hi Dawn -- I find that whenever I work out at the gym enough to cause sore muscles, I always gain weight initially. Always.
It really upset me at first when I started exercising at the gym in March because I didn't understand what was going on. But now I do and -- believe me -- it will whoosh away at some point. And it whooshes away 2-3 lbs overnight when it happens which is really a fabulous thing. Stick to your plan and don't worry:hug: |
