Morning everyone,
I am starting to wonder whether WW is actually working for me... dont get me wrong I LOVE this diet, but I have been doing it since 5th Feb and the scales (altho they have been lower at some points) are currently only showing a loss in all this time of 2lbs.
I know that fluctuations etc cause rises and falls but I am fed up of not seeing a steady loss, as I did when I was calorie counting in Jan. In Jan I lost a steady 1-2lbs a week and it didnt go up and down, it just fell gradually. Granted I was a bit hungrier sometimes but I am thinking that maybe its worth feeling a little bit peckish if it means I can see the weight shifting. Since starting WW I have only now lost 2lbs in total (instead of per week!!) my shape has changed but I think that may be due to ongoing exercise as oposed to diet, and actually thinking about it my weight and shape changed more when cal counting. I think maybe I am more strict with myself when doing it the other way.
So now I need to make a decision about whether to go back to it. Im not sure how many calories I SHOULD be taking in, thats the only thing. Plus u lot are so supportive and I dont want to lose all the friendship etc. If I switch can I stay on here???
