Hey everyone...
Ok I'm in need of something...reassurance maybe...encouragement...advice?! I don't know.
I've been on Lighter Life since end of May and I quit a few weeks ago. I lost 3 and a half stone but since August (I cheated when I went on hols for 2 weeks), I've pretty much stayed the same weight so figured no point carrying on LL and changed to Weight Watchers.
I want to lose 2 and a half stone still!! :sigh:
On my first week of WW I put on 2lbs..then I had 2nd weigh in lastnight (after having a really bad weekend diet wise but having a bit of a tummy bug) and lost 6lbs! I was DELIGHTED!
HOWEVER, I was so pleased lastnight that I decided to treat myself (why do we do that?!!)...I had a bit of a binge/takeaway etc and stupidly weighed myself tonight (I've not eaten much today - cereal, ryvita and a prawn salad) and I've just discovered that I'm 6lbs heavier again!!!
How can I be 6lbs heavier in 1 night?!?!! It's not Glycogen levels..I've not been doing Lighter Life for WEEKS now so it can't be that (surely wouldn't have lost the 6lbs in first place if it was!)...
I'm just devastated because now I think I'll go back to weigh in next Tuesday and find I've gained! Plus I've got a big day/night out coming up on Saturday where I'll be drinking and out for bar lunch...normally I'd be ok about it as most people have 1 treat day but because of the 6lb gain after lastnight I'm terrified I'll keep gaining more!! I'm trying to cut down on points to repair some damage but it's still not working! :cry:
It's the next stone down I just CANNOT get to..I got to it lastnight (was 3lbs below the next stone figure) and now am back up again to 3 over!! Why can't I get down that stone and stay down on it....I can't believe I've gained the 6lbs I lost..how can that be?! Don't you have to eat 3,500 cals extra to gain a pound? It was only a takeaway and some chocolate....:cry:
Gutted. :cry:
