Hi, I need help please! My entire family - and some friends - have lost weight really easily and successfully with SW (varying red and green days). After Christmas I had a 'few' extra pounds to lose and decided to give it a go. I only lost a pound on the first week and since then I've been gaining weight week-by-week (I'm now 5lb heavier than when I started!). I follow the plan religiously, I haven't had chocolate or alcohol for 6 weeks, but I am eating so much more food than I used to. I have free, superfree, healthy extras, syns (only 5.5 per day) etc. I think my weight gain's because I used to have a pretty bland, very low calorie diet - I had little interest in food. How things have changed!! I'm loving all the food I can eat but getting bigger and bigger. However, I've been assured that the amount of food I'm eating is irrelevant as SW is all about combination (which I've apparently got spot-on). I've been told to persevere (by my family) until my body "gets used to it". Surely a lot more calories = a lot more weight???? Help!
