[teetiefunk]

[Alpaca]

Morning Laura... Great photo!

 

[teetiefunk]

so i had two glasses of dry red wine last night and im two lbs up this morning?? wtf? i just dont know whats going on...i cant seem to lose any weight on atkins anymore ive been going up and down the same two pounds :-( really dont know what im doing wrong...ive given up caffeine already incase it was that. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

 

[Alpaca]

Water retention is what comes to mind... Did you have loads of water as well Laura?

 

[teetiefunk]

had a glass of water before bed... i dont just mean about gaining 2lbs overnight...i mean about not losing in general...its really disheartening...i can maintain no probs on atkins just cant lose a pound!

I am just the same, can keep fairly stable but the losses are few and far between for me too, I know I have blips now and again but even when I am really good the scales can still go up instead of down! Hugs xx

Morning Laura... That must be so disheartening! I have to watch fat intake and calories in order to lose 2lb a week... But I have a rubbish metabolism...

I get the fat from cream and cheese which seems to be the right amount for my body ... And I try and keep to about 1000-1100 calories - it seems that if I have a 'blow out' I gain or stay put!

Not sure what to suggest Laura! Hugs

 

[teetiefunk]

think i will try lowering my calories and see if that helps....need to do something

Evening laura Good luck on exante!

 

[Alpaca]

Good morning Laura and hope things start shifting soon

 

[teetiefunk]

decided to go back on exante on monday until xmas i have my wedding coming up and cant afford to not be losing :-( as much as i love atkins i just dont have the time to be tweaking it and experimenting...rest assured i will be back to atkins to maintain...this is truly the only woe for me!!

 

[Jim]

Morning Laura, good luck and keep posting here for us love

 

[teetiefunk]

I hear ya Laura!!!! Me to, Exante on Monday for 10 days!

Mind you, had lots to eat Sat/Sunday just gone and lots of wine, champagne and peach shnappes .....I went back up 2lbs but am now back down to 10st 9lb today and only two days in out of the week!!

So it just goes to show the damn water fluctuation!

We shall support each other next week on Exante, I'm gonna need it!!!
