I've been on SW for about seven weeks and have lost about 7lb so far which sounds reasonable, but then I looked at my "tracker" of the last four weeks and I've only lost 2.7lb in four week. I'm not one that's wanting to speed through weightloss, but that seems incredibly slow considering I'm still three stone overweight.
I've been sticking to 70 syns a week - certainly no more. I don't have 10 daily, because I don't always want 10 everyday. Somedays I have five, some days I have fifteen (when I'm more hungry.)
I keep losing weight (last week I lost 2lb,) but then gaining again (this week I put on 1lb.) This has happened several weeks in a row, here's my log of the last four weeks:
Week 4: -2.4 lb
Week 5: + 0.7 lb
Week 6 - 2lb
Week 7: + 1lb
How can I get out of this rut? When I was calorie counting I was losing slowly but consistently. I don't want to finish with SW because it's a great plan and easy to fit into my lifestyle, but I really don't know what's going on here. My Mum says give it a few more weeks and see what happens before changing.
Not to mention I have exercised about five hours this week so it really makes no sense.
