girl gone mad

I had been doing so good with having a positive outlook over the past several weeks, but it went away.

The reason it went away is: I had been weighing every morning. I got on the scale one morning and it said 247. WhooHooo! But the next day, 249 and the day after that 251. I was shocked and horrified. I have done NOT ONE THING WRONG. I have been VERY good about eating correctly, drinking correctly and I exercised every day for the last 3 weeks. AND I AM GAINING!.... There is no way that is humanly possible.

I do not understand this one bit. I have never had a problem losing weight in the past... only problems keeping it off. I am starting to think that I have a medical condition that I am not aware of.

Anyways... I am still VERY committed to myself. I have stayed on the straight and narrow with eating properly, journaling, exercising and drinking water. I am not going to weigh myself more than once a week if possible, because this upset me so much.

I am also getting really frustrated seeing everyone's losses add up and I am still doing so poorly. And I know that I am not cheating with junk food or overeating. I am journaling every bite I take. EVERYTHING!

It's enough to make a girl go mad!!!

Hi - I agree 100% - STOP weighing yourself every single day - you will go crazy doing that -- the body naturally retains fluids and fluctuates A LOT during a week's time -- some people do NOT even weigh themselves more than once a month at their doctor's office--- my 'first' few weeks when I joined LBT I weighed daily to get into a routine of good eating and exercising - but now it is just once a week -- I'll also bet your clothes are getting bigger despite the fact that the scale doesn't change....that has happened to me and I've learned to look for NSVs (non-scale victories)instead of the scale number -- best of luck to you on your weight loss quest!
