And ofcourse the cynic in me says we only have peoples words theyre losing what they say... I could come on here every week and tell you Im losing 4/5 lbs... how will you know Im not
hi size102b i do more exercise and drink more water that when i started my diet ( got of my lazy bum) i think that why my loss was bigger in the last couple of weeks
If i have a big loss its because i maintained or gained the week before :giggle: If i stick to it i lose weight, thats the important thing.
I think the good weeks are always the ones where you stick to the points completely, drink lots of water and push the exercise as much as possible. Its what works for me anyway, i do find the week i dont get to exercise as much or i have a couple of days where the tracker goes out the window..it'l b a sts or maybe a little gain..and i find if ive had a nite out over the wknd the alcohol will always make for a gain. Ive tried to give it up as much as possible i only drink for occasions now and i really dont even miss it anymore.
You do realise drinking loads of water ISNT going to make any great difference weight wise. Theres a common misconception on diets that you should drink 2l of water a day - its not true. A lot of people do drink water because they feel it makes them feel better and healthier but dont worry if you dont.. .WW actually recommend 1.2l of FLUID, not water, a day.
I do find a bigger loss follows a smaller one.
I lose weight quick but I put it on even quicker. I can put a stone on over a holiday or xmas without trying.
I am breastfeeding a now 7 month old, have a 2 and a half year old to run around after, a house to keep, I study twice a week plus homework. So I think its nervous energy for me too some of the time. I never count activity points because I havent got time and I cant be @rsed to be honest. I just eat my points.
In lighterlife all the people that lost big each week drank 5 litres of water a day as they say you 'have to' the weeks I drank 5 litres a day I lost bigger.......
I cant drink water on its on it makes me gag lol......
So Im still confused lol
But thats a totally different diet. Remember when youre eating you take in something like 2l of water through food.
LL and CD are all saying that the old 'the more you drink the more you shrink' idea is NOT true. A lot of people on CD can testify that drinking loads hasnt improved their losses, might have been coincidence with your weeks.who knows but on WW drinking loads wont increase your losses. Wish it did
