  • I gained 1 pound.....????

    I don't know what is happening. I did exactly what I have been doing the last three weeks and now I gained 1 pound this week. What could possibly be wrong???? Help.

    Good morning, Bee

    What's wrong?

    Nothing.

    You're not going to see a loss every single week. Hitting a pause 3-4 weeks into this is completely and totally normal and common. Keep on keepin' on. You're doing just fine!!!

      This happens! Don't worry. Keep eating right and the weight will go.
      Also... if it's your TOM time, your weight will go up for a few days.
      Hang in there!

          Hi

          Dont let that put you off - just keep doing what you're doing as with 12lbs loss, you are obviously doing something right!!

          My weight fluctuates all the time - so really there's nothing to worry about

          Keep up the good work

            I've had mornings where I've gained 10-15lbs overnights....what an eye opener! lol..

            When the scale refuses to agree, stick with the tape measure, thats why its always good to have measurments, so you can always have a source of good news!

            btw, did you eat 3500 calories yesterday? if not, then its nothing to worry about.

              Like has already been mentioned, it most likely is just a temporary water weight gain. Unless you changed your eating recently, you have nothing to worry about. My weight used to bounce around, but it is the long term trends that are important. One week does not make a trend make.
