Re: I'm gaining all of a sudden

I'm happy to heart things are going good for you again.
I'm still struggeling, gained 300g on Sunday, lost them today...I've had this before (not as much though) and I fought with it for weeks :/
I was really hoping I could present myself as an under-80-kg-girl when I go home to Germany this weekend but it doesn't look like that'll happen

Re: I'm gaining all of a sudden

omg, another 500 g gone, I'm almost where I was now
300 g more and I could get under the 80 before the weekend.
keep your fingers crossed for me

I had almost no meat in the last 2 days...just didn't feel like it, so maybe that is a way for me to go.

Maybe it is.

I eat very, very little meat - maybe 2-3 times a week at most. It's definately doable on Atkins.

Re: I'm gaining all of a sudden

before atkins i didnt eat a lot of meat either so it shouldnt be too much of a problem, just have to get through lunch at work.
meat has lots of protein after all, so this could be a problem idd.

Re: I'm gaining all of a sudden

Women only need about 50 g of protein per day. I get most of mine from eggs (A four egg meal has a ton of protein). And fish, though I'm not a big fish eater - maybe once a week. The rest of mine actually comes from veggies - brocolli, for example!

Re: I'm gaining all of a sudden

is that right?
I'd have 3 times that amount on a normal day lol

Re: I'm gaining all of a sudden

So, now I'm finally back at 80,1, the weight I had before I started gaining and tomorrow I leave for Germany and of course I'll be eating different foods then, nothing non-atkins as I wont jeopardize my losses but I admit I'm afraid eating differently might make things worse again.
wish me luck with this and with resisting all the temptations I know I will find in my hometown ( I just <3 german food )

Good Luck Sera, you'll be fine!

Re: I'm gaining all of a sudden

Hang in there! Unless you eat 4,000 calories a day, any weight you gain will mostly be fluid.
