Hi all
I really feel like throwing the towel in. I have just had my 2nd weigh in. I normally weigh in on a Wed morn really early before I have anything to drink. I had to weigh in this afternoon as I cant make it there tomorrow. Now I had drank 4 litres of water today and had 2 shakes taken before I weighed in. But still I was up 4 and a half lbs!!!! i was shocked. I told the pharmacist what I had taken today ( the water and the shakes). She told me I must have broken it as there is no way the water and shakes would cause that. But I didnt break it. I got really upset as this bloody diet is hard and I dont seem to be getting anywhere. I came home and weighed a litre of water and it is 36 ozs which is 2 and a half lbs. I had 4 of them so technically had taken on board 10 lbs of liquid. I would have got rid of a lot of that over the day but she says there is no way that the water could account for the weight gain. She says that perhaps I am drinking too much water - is that possible? Oh help. How in the name of god could I be up 4 and a half lbs. My first week I only lost 5lbs. So after 2 weeks of torture I am only down half a pound!!!! Has anyone else had an unexplained weight gain? I have been rooting through all the threads and I cant see anyone who did. Ah I dont think I can go on with this as I am taking 1 step forward and 2 back.
Any help/advice/explanation would be so greatly appreciated.
