To feel disappointed to have only lost 100g in one week?

After all my hard work and dieting I'm only losing 100g -200g a week. I do look more toned, but I'm also incredibly constipated and bloated. But given my calorie deficit I would have expected it to be a bit better. At this pace it will take more than a year to lose the 7-10kg I want to lose!

Wow 4cm loss that's what's going on! Amazing progress

Well today I woke up 500g lighter! A bit expected as I felt a lot less bloated in the PM

My bloat is gone (for now!) I'm so so happy!!

That's great OP. I do think weighing every day can be misleading. My tracking is much better since I started doing it once a week at the same time

Onlyrainbows · 14/07/2022 10:31

I don't it's that misleading (especially with someone like me who can carry tons of extra weight for GI reasons). Once a pattern is established it's a lot easier to move away from it, but like everything to do a proper analysis the more data points, the better it will be.

And I'm 700g lighter than yesterday! I've noticed before that once I lose the bloat and overall feel lighter I lose the extra weight overnight

Don't be disheartened by DH weight loss.

My Dsis and her DH attended SW he was loosing 5/6lb weekly, Dsis was enraged she eventually lost 5 stone and has managed to sustain 4 stone off 4 years off whereas her DH lost his weight too fast and put it back on within a year.

Slow and steady can win the race.

My husband is a bit nuts... He has stopped eating treats for the most part but thinks my calorie counting is over the top! But then he says I have a very sedentary life... Anywho in the I've lost more weight than him!
