You may be gaining muscle. You may be close to TOM? Maybe you had some sodium rich foods?

You probally need to eat more. I know sounds weird. But you said you were not getting all your points in plus with your working out that much you probally need to eat more. Also if you are working out more, you could be gaining muscle which weighs more. Talk to your leader about how many points you need to eat with the extra activity you are doing. But do not stop. It will catch up and you will see a loss next week!

Don't worry! This is the moment when most people quit. Not you! I have not lost a gram in 20 days now, but I know that soon I will start to lose again. Go on doing what you are doing, and be patient. Stay put! Consider this is your first trial, and there are many more ahead of you, so get ready for the long haul if you want to get to your goal. Good luck!

You are not eating enough.With all that exercise you earned a bunch of activity points.You should be eating those and your regular points.You may also be retaining fluid from the exercise as muscles repair themselves.

Don't give up, you are still learning. Do try to eat all of your points, and use some weeklies if you need them, too. Make sure you get in all your GHG's and you are not living on just the 0 point fruits and veggies.
On the exercise front, your muscles will hold onto water after exercise. Exercise breaks down the fat and muscles and water builds them back up. Give it some more time since you are still new and go from there.
AND... No need for a whole pizza. Have a slice or two and a big salad. You can do this!!!

I agree could be a ton of things... sodium rich food you ate, water retention, TOM approaching or like the others said you need to eat more... if your working out like crazy ...definately eat more

1.2lb should definitely NOT discourage you. If it was 3lb up, I would completely understand... but during the weight loss process it's completely normal to go up 1.2lb sometimes, and then find that next time you measure you're down 2lb.

Like the others have said already, it could be due to your TOM coming up, water retention through eating salty foods...

Definitely keep at your routine! I'm sure you will see the pounds drop in a week or two. The most important thing is that you're eating healthily and exercising regularly, weight loss will definitely follow.

I'm glad you're feeling a bit better about this

There's an inherent problem with only weighing weekly (not to say that it isn't a valid way to weigh in!) in that you don't know if you're weighing in on a random day when you're fluctuating up. You could have actually lost weight this week—you just didn't know it because you were retaining water or the actual weight of the food was in you, etc. There is A LOT that goes into your actual weight. If you have been following a plan and you didn't eat too much then chances are you weight has just ticked up on the day you were supposed to weigh in. Annoying, right?

Ok, I'm going to be a pain again and post my weight loss graph. Now I've been too lazy to upload my new one which has my actual weight since my graph scale me in 10lbs heavier the whole time I was losing, but it still has the rate of my loss.

I weighed in every day. Look at how the graph is all over the place, but still shows a general downward trend.



Unfortunately our bodies do not just lose weight when we want them to. So many factors come into play when we weigh in that it can be pretty much impossible to ever see a straight line downward. Should you see a general downward trend after a while? Yep! Just be patient, stick to the WW plan (just be careful not to overdo it on the 0 point stuff! They DO still count!) and exercise and you should be fine

I see a lot of people saying that you could be gaining muscle and while you could be getting a little bit, you most certainly did not gain 1 pound of muscle in a week. The most a woman can put on without hormone help is 1 pound of muscle a MONTH - and that is with heavy weight training and a protein and slightly more calorie dense diet. Men have a hard time packing on muscle and they have 20 times more of the anabolic hormones necessary for hypertrophy.

What DID probably happen though is that you gained water weight, especially if you are working out a lot more. This is not bad! Your weight will fluctuate and if you are retaining some water if means your muscles are taking in fluid for repair (a good thing). If you are consistently gaining week to week I would then be concerned but trust us, it's something that fluctuates.
