Really down today. I've been doing SS+ for 9 days to the letter, weighed everything, cut out everything but water. Just got weighed and I've put on 2.5lb! Did a test and I'm in ketosis. My first weigh in and I put on weight?! How can that even be possible?! I feel so disheartened. Ive been so good and worked really hard and I just feel useless. I know if I talk to people about it they'll just think I've been cheating but I know I have been true to myself and followed it to the letter. And I'm in ketosis so CDC said that's proof of my hard work. Just really upset.

Oh hun I really feel for you - that is very demoralising but it must be your body holding onto water or something. If you say you've not cheated then obviously you've not cheated as why would you say that on here - what did your CDC say - hope she was supportive and helped try to remotivate you?
Sending big hugs - keep going as it must start to come off soon.

Aww love, I know it must be destroying but you should stay strong. Everyone's body works differently, you may be holding on to water, or maybe you should work on being on a higher step to kick start your metabolism, maybe it's not happy only having 600 cals. Or it's possible you could have a massive loss and drop it all in the second week, who knows, but if you stay strong and carry on you will see the loss you want.

I know it's not the end of the world and it probably just water retention but I was soo devastated! going to see CDC on Saturday morning and I have to up my water from 3ltr a day to 4ltr and see if that helps. Also she wants to me book blood tests (which I've done) as she thinks there might be a problem as she's never know that to happen before. I know it will work put but I'd been powering through the past 9 days thinking it'll be worth it on the scales and it wasn't!! I know it will work out but feeling pretty sorry for myself xxx

I was thinking that too, you may need some tests for thyroid problems etc. Bless you, it'll all happen in the end so don't get too down about it, you'll get to your target. xx
