Me and my husband have both been doing SW for almost six months, both losing around 2 stones in this time. My husband's weight is yo-yo-ing a bit at the moment each time he gets weighed and has been for over a month. He's finding it really frustrating as he's putting in a huge amount of effort and going to the gym 3-4 times a week but his weight is fluctuating between 3lbs and every time it goes down it pops back up again. Can anyone offer any hints or tips?
Typical diet each day is:
Breakfast - three egg omelette with ham, onions, peppers and a tiny bit of grated mozzarella and mullerlight
Snack - either Mullerlight, raw carrots or pickled onions
Lunch - Syn-free soup and bread roll (HEX-b) with fruit salad or syn-free jambalaya with fruit salad
Tea - always a free meal on EE as I batch cook every weekend. It's usually curry/chilli with rice or some form of pasta, always with a big side salad or we'll have a big stir-fry or steak or chicken with SW chips and steamed/roasted vegetables. We have a small amount of light salad dressing which is 1 syn. I don't use any oils other than frylight.
I've changed the soup to Superspeed Soup in the last two weeks and have also tried to increase the amount of superspeed foods we have. Daily drinks are water, sugar-free squash or diet drinks and one or two cups of tea.
He does have a protein shake after the gym but this is only 6 syns and he uses skimmed milk as a HEX-a. We keep most of our syns for the weekend when we have a curry or chinese (20 syns max) and a few beers or wines. We've done this throughout and have never had any problems with a loss before now.
It could be that he's putting on muscle at the gym but it's really frustrating not to see any losses. Any ideas as to how to kick-start the losses again?
