Hello All,
I have been healthy eating and exercising daily for a week now, only just managed to get myself a pair of scales on Friday as I've just moved house and threw my last set away. I weighed myself that day just out of curiousity and it was much worse than I thought but I got over it and did the same as what I was doing.
I cut down my calorie intake on both friday and saturday and did more exercise these days as I knew I was going out on Sat night and didnt wanna feel guilty. I didnt overdo it really, but I did maybe have more than I should. I didn't snack while I was out and on sunday I went back to healthy eating, drank lots of water and did some gentle exercise.
I was feeling really positive about my ability to factor in a night out into my healthy eating regime, but then I got on the scales this morning. I wouldnt normally weigh myself more than once a week but I wanted to start weighing myself every monday morning. Well according to the scales I've put on 2lbs since Friday :sigh: I feel so gutted as I've really worked hard this week and was careful to make sure that I didnt just overdo the eating and drinking on sat.
Does alcohol make you retain water a day later? This is the only other reason I can think of that means I'm weighing heavier, otherwise I have to accept I undid all my good work last week and thats somewhat depressing
