Extra Easy Gain but been sooooooo good!!! :(

[christine_1999_uk]

So I am just back from group and have 2.5lbs on this week!

I AM GUTTED!

I have been really good and followed the plan to the letter, I still keep a diary of all my food and cannot see anything that would have caused a gain.

Any tips? ideas?

Please help .....

Hey hun, is it around your time of the month at all? Perhaps you're retaining water?.
I've also noticed if I have carb heavy meals my body holds on to water temporarily really badly! If I eat several meals with sw chips or lots of pasta the days before weigh in I really notice the effects on the scales (I love to cover both in salt to which makes water retention even worse!!)
If it is temporary water retention you should see a good loss next week. Keep at it though I know how gutting it can feel and your efforts will be rewarded.

Thanks I have Coil in so never sure sometimes when tom is HOWEVER now you mention the carb heavy meals I did have a few rice/chip SW friendly combo meals on the two days before weigh in ‍ Hoping like mad that was the reason and weighin next week will be fab! Lol glad I didn't eat ALL the cakes now

It certainly plays havoc with my losses that's for sure!! Fingers crossed those pounds disappear and some on your next weigh in hun.

Hiya,

I had a very similar experience a few weeks ago. I had been really good, stuck to plan 100% in fact i probably ate less than i normally would this particular week. I didn't have many carbs and had no alcohol. I am also on the coil so never have a tom and I put on 3lbs....I cried!! I was absolutely gutted and it consumed my whole week after weigh in. I just couldn't get my head round it. I stuck to it though and I carried on and the next week at weigh in I lost 6lbs. I still have no idea what it was that caused the 3lb gain! A couple of weeks later I put on a pound...again, no idea why this was as had honestly stuck to plan 100% but the following week I lost 4lbs.

Let us know how you get on in your next weigh in. I really think if you have stuck to it you will see a massive loss! Good luck

Problem is that I'm obsessing about it now and its making me crazy! I'm eating prunes (to cleanse me lol) and drinking water like theres no tomorrow - even bought a fitbit

I don't even feel like eating in case I gain this week - wrong way to think I know!!!

I'm starting to lose the plot I think
