    Upset, this WOE is stalling!!! Ready to attack for sweets!!

    I worked out with weights lower body just one day. I gained some weight, my WOE is the same, water the same. I'm livid!!! I gained a solid 3.5 lbs and the cold part about it is that the inches aren't moving either. I had a sugar fit today, wanting some, raging like an addict, I didn't give in. I love that I didn't but I am upset the scale hasn't moved but up, in over a week. I know that Dr. A said after 4 weeks or so is a stall, but now one day of squats shouldn't do this urplequ: Excuse me for playing the violin, but I'm not a happy one right now. :anger

    Hey there :wave

    Um to be delicate, is TOM coming to visit soon?

    That could explain a lot

    Also girl those scales are pure EVIL. When we aren't looking their heads spin around in a circle. They walk through the corn in small Nebraska towns inhabited only by children!!!!

    Now I am sooooo happy that you did not give in to the sweets monster today!! Feel free to vent, maybe somebody out there will have better advice than I do. But by all means stick with it!! You are a strong woman and you can do this.

    keep it up

        No, no, no, no, no...keep going with your WOE! You'll feel horrible if you cheat, you gain water weight...and that will make you miserable. Then you have to go back on the wagon, which won't be as easy...oh then carb withdrawl, the craving once again...and oh the drama...keep it up girlie and get on with your fine self. Stay off the scale for a week or two, then see how it goes.

          Working out can make you retain water. Your body is just doing what it needs to do. Do not give up and it will come off soon.

            Just be patient. If you're not cheating, drinking all your water and exercising, you will see results.

              #1..don't weight yourself all the time, the scales is the DEVIL!

              #2 Is it the TOM? I notice I crave more around that time.

              #3, Also, you may have gained MUSCLE not fat because ur body is getting used to the exercise and is building musles then after a while it will be fat that'll burn

              #4 Your weight fluctuates depending on time of day, TOM arriving, and many other things.

              #5 If you see sweets, stay away from them and run away..out of sight out of mind!

                I totally went off yesterday because of the same reason. (But I'm not gonna beat myself up today). I was craving sweets - my guess is TOM - AND the scale hasn't been moving. NOR HAS THE MEASURING TAPE. So I said screw it and dove into the candy.

                But I'm back on today hoping that I can make this work. :wave

                  Come on now!!!

                  Come on now Nikki, girl you are stronger than this!!!! If you think you are frustrated now, you will really be pissed if you cheat and the scale doesn't move for another week or so???? What if the scale would have moved the day after the cheat, but you will never know because YOU CHEATED :yikes. Now that would piss me to **** and back. You never know when the numbers will start to move again.

                  Also try kickin everything up a notch, and see if that does help (exercise)

                  I'm here for ya--you'll make it outta this sweet :hug mood.

                        My weight went up 6 lbs in ONE day, and I hadn't even cheated! Within a couple of days, it was gone again. I also had a 3 week stall, and then lost 6 pounds over 2 days.

                        Don't let those scales get to you!!!
