    Not necessarily. Some people don't gain weight by overeating (in fact that's the wrong word, i mean eating excessively) just by making the wrong food choices. 2 meals a day consisting of all the bad foods can take you over your daily calories needed, hence weight gain. Therefore when...

    A bit of bread/cereal bar and milk/cheese on top of mullerlights and mugshots would not a healthy diet make. Plus WW suggest you spend some of your points on calcium sources etc anyway, so if you followed WW properly then you'd have to have your calcium/fibre too.

    BF is a type 1 diabetic and has been following SW. When he is getting hypo he eats a banana or two and this does the trick to get his sugars back to a decent level, then follows it up with something carby to make sure it stays up. Also hasn't jepodised his weight loss at all :)

    I'm really confused!

    Getting a waist that small would require a very low and unhealthy weight. I suggest you rethink and take BMI as a lose guide.

    OT Sorry men.Mirenal coil or exercise weight gain?

    I'd say you've only had it in for 7 weeks, so there's bound to be a settling in period as it will have higher levels of hormones than your last one. 2 gains with losses in between is hardly "ruining" your weight loss. So i'd say just give it a chance to settle down.

    Some apple crumble and jaffa cakes should be within you syn allowance? If so then it's not going to ruin the diet.
