Weight Loss?

Weigh in yesterday.  I was excited.  I've been tracking the food, even the 10 Frito's this weekend with the tablespoon of bean dip!  I have 30 points on Weight Watchers a day with 49 extra for the week and if I want my exercise counts as activity points.  I don't use the 49 or the activity points usually so I've been following the 30.  The first week I lost 2.2 pounds, YIPPEE!  Last week I gained .2 pounds, BOO.  Last night I was eager to step on the scale as I felt that I lost.  I felt it!  WHAT!!!!!!  I was up .4 pounds!  Well, crap!  I don't, don't, don't understand.  I've been living on veggies and very little rice, bread or potatoes.  I've been eating fish and chicken and the one beef meal this week was out for the anniversary and I scraped the sauce off of it.  I don't eat fat and if I use any it is olive oil but very, very little.  I will roast stuff in the oven with cooking spray.  I have been eating the veggies like mad and even added fresh fruit that I don't necessarily like.  I just wanted to cry during the meeting but my friend Beverly told me she had that happen for about 4 weeks and then all of a sudden started losing.  I certainly hope that happens because if I go next week and that damn scale goes up again I'm going to quit eating!!!!!  Just kidding.  It is frustrating but I won't give up!

You need to have calories to burn, so eating very little isn't always the answer. But don't sweat it, you do the eating and exercising right, it will happen.

Hang in there, it sounds like you're eating right and as long as you exercise it will happen. I am thinking of going back on WW online, but need to checkout this new plan.

I know that's discouraging. It's all about the exercise. Make sure you are getting enough. And, be patient. It will work. I'm proud of you for hanging in there.

Just keep doing the right things, like you are, and it will pay off.
