That's it really. All that blinking salad and no picking and NOTHING. Bloody depressing

I have dieted this week and put 1 pound on...do I win?

Bouj · 22/01/2007 01:12

Lol, suppose that's worse! do you know where you went wrong? I'm thinking I might have to cut wine out altogether. Sob.

Give it a bit longer to kick in .

Have to be thin by June. Sister getting married and I refuse to be fat bridesmaid. Can't claim I 'just' had a baby either. Ds2 is 8 months old...

is your period due ? That may explain the lack of weight loss.

Do you keep a food diary? That way you can look back and see where there might be an issue.

But sometimes you just don't lose - is it your first week dieting, or a subsequent week?

We are on week 3 here, and DH didn't lose anything this week. But we think we know why!

Ceebee74 · 22/01/2007 08:19

This could have been written by me! Last week, ate well, went to the gym 3 times, swimming once and didn't lose a thing! Gutted!!!

But someone from another thread has just told me that her WW leader said that on the weeks you don't lose weight, you are losing inches, not pounds - made me feel better thinking like that - that is my new motto

throckenholt · 22/01/2007 08:26

ceebee - if you are doing extra exercise then you are building muscle - which wieghs more than fat - so you can still be losing fat, but not actually weighing less.

Budababe · 22/01/2007 08:28

Sometimes it takes time for the weight loss to click in. You may lose lots next week.

And - are you drinking lots of water? At least 8 BIG glasses a day.

Bouj · 22/01/2007 11:02

LOTS of water. Am in Aus, blinking hot atm. Went to gym twice last week, plus one pilates class. Love the inches idea, Ceebee. Will def use that one. As for pregnant (bouj laughs nervously) am secretly worried.... Haven't had a period for ages since I'm still bfing ds2. But had slight bleed last week. Suspicously like implant bleed had with both boys. Its the bloody minipill's fault. Haven't got enough room left in brain to be remembering little tablet. Chances are slim (ha!), though, surely....

Damn, have had wine now. Will undoubtedly put lot on this week. Bloody hell.

Forgive the wine... I think I have drink one glass of wine in total in the last 4 weeks and still... no joy!

Ceebee74 · 22/01/2007 12:19

Bouj - was at you drinking wine at 11.30 then realised you were in Australia - lol!!

CountessDracula · 25/01/2007 14:01
