Ok so the last and a half week, even though I'm in the green zone, my scales have been so damn stubborn and refused to budge. I've stuck to my food rules, 8 or more glasses if Water a day and increased my walking to an hour in the mornings and 30 minutes on the treadmill after dinner. My weight kept increasing every day, so by yesterday I was five pounds heavier. I've felt bloated, thick and just icky. I'm pre menopausal and haven't had a period in over a year. This morning I refused to weigh myself, got on with my morning and was constantly going to the bathroom so I finally gave in and weighed myself and low and behold I'm at exactly 300 pounds, eight pounds lighter than yesterday morning and a total of 65.9 pounds lost since my pre op diet, four months ago.
I knew it was mainly Fluid retention as there was no way in hell I ate more than my half to one cup per meal. I was starting to get discouraged, even though I knew it would all come off again or the plateaues would end but grrrrr wish I was a man at times that didn't have to worry about hormone fluctuations!!
Just venting and fingers crossed I will be under 300 pounds tomorrow morning. If I am I'm going to cry tears if happiness!!
