I can't of dropped 40lbs in 9 days...what is going on ?

[Wantacurry]

I am a very fat 20 stone woman with medical issues.

Currently following a very strict low cal medical eating plan under dietician for the past 9 days, another 13 days to go :(

The digital bathroom scales which are still working correctly for my DH, tells me I have dropped 40 pounds over the last 9 days !

That can't be right, can it ?

I do minimum of 5 miles walking a day (11, 000 steps via Fitbit), 15 minutes of body weight with trx straps exercise x 3 a week and occasional swim at the weekend with my family.

Is this broken scales, water loss or a completed anomoly and I will be much heavier again tomorrow.

Just for completeness. I always use same scales on same point of the floor, when I wake up in the morning. After using toilet but before I step into the shower and naked !

Of course I would be delighted if it was a real loss but logically it just can't be, can it ?

Well done OP! That’s brilliant!

Wow that's amazing OP, well done and keep going!

Awesome OP, inspiring stuff!! Really well done you

I was on a strict diet for 8 months last year. I only lost 6 pounds. Boo hoo.

Well done OP!

Amazing, well done!

Well done OP on the weight loss so far, thanks for the update, and well done on giving low FODMAP a wider audience.

I'm one of the luckier ones - I followed it strictly for two weeks last year and it made a massive difference to my IBS in that short time.
I do avoid raw onion as I still don't tolerate it well but am ok with a small amount of it (and garlic) in cooked food.

That’s brilliant!! Keep it up ;-) Good for you I do hope you realise how well you are doing and have a little pat on the back moment xx

Thanks for the update OP, you're doing terrifically well! I bet you find the comments start rolling in soon - quite often with weight loss you can lose quite steadily for a while but then all of a sudden something shifts and everyone notices.

Fantastic -well done you

It's taken me 4 months to lose a stone, you're a OP.

Well done, @Wantacurry 🥇🥇🥇

Well done op! Although your username has made me very hungry!

How’s it going OP? X

Doing fine 42lbs down, another 48lbs to go to my next goal. Hopefully back to report in October if all goes well. Have a nice summer :)
