The water is definetly an issue hun, i know its hard to drink it when your not fussy on it but try different ways, ice cold, room temp, hot, pretty glass, sports bottle etc.
My friend is 38 and we think she has started the change and its really not helping the weight issue, some weeks shes great but then sometimes the poor thing piles on the pounds even when she strictly sticks to her diet.

One more thing about the water, fill up a 2 litre bottle and make it your mission that day to drink it all, its suprising when its measured in a bottle, by drinking glass by glass how quickly the bottle emptys!

Thank you Kim 
Just read everything before my post - rubbish about your gain Are you exercising any more? Are you eating enough? I spoke to a personal trainer yesterday who said that even though I'm dieting I won't lose weight if I under eat as my body will start eating muscle which will in turn slow metabolism - this might be it? Are you eating at the right times, i.e. breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner? Maybe you could shake things up and have your main meal for breakfast when you're most likely to burn it off then have a shake or soup for dinner?
Everytime I've lost weight in the past I've plateaud (sp?), got lots of these little tips from the gym to try and stop it happening this time!xx

Kimbell,
Have you tried the volvic touch of fruit water? I find that really easy to drink, the strawberry one is my favourite! Plus I think lots of supermarkets do their own flavoured water too a bit cheaper. Have you been doing any weights or muscle building activities at all? This could maybe be the cause of a gain as muscle weighs more, coupled with water retention that could be it x It's so disheartening when your not loosing but stick with it and I'm sure you'll see some great results x
gymfiend,
fantastic loss, you must've worked so hard! congrats x

Thanks for all the advice girls..it`s great to know I`m not alone here!
I`ve drunk about a litre of water today...that`s brilliant for me..peeing all day!
can only really walk and swim as excercise as I have arthritis and this limits a bit.
i`ll definately try the flavoured water....have to try all the advice given...fingers crossed for next week!

PS) Have a good week girls

Morning everyone. Well am back to work today after my two weeks off and unfortunately I have gained 2lb. I am not surprised though I have been really naughty. Oh well back to it.
Good luck everyone else.
