Scales not budging!

CassieJones104

I have not cheated on my diet at all but the scales have not budged in a week. Could diet cokes be hindering my weight loss? I'm doing 1200 calories btw.

One week without a loss is normal. Be sure your scale's batteries aren't dying and other than that, keep being patient.

No, diet coke is not hindering your weight loss.

Weight loss is not linear. Is it near your t.o.m.? Possibly you ate some high sodium food and are holding water weight? Are you under some stress? Are you using a food scale and is your logging tight and accurate.

Relax and give it time. One week is not a stall. And diet coke would not hinder weight loss. I can't imagine why you would think that.

did you gain all the weight in a week?

Log your weekly gains/losses and you will probably find a pattern of no loss or even gain every 4 weeks. The joys of being a woman.

Diet Coke isn't hindering your weight loss.

Weight loss isn't a linear process and there are a lot of reasons that the scale will fluctuate. Good read about it here which may be helpful to you: http://physiqonomics.com/the-weird-and-highly-annoying-world-of-scale-weight-and-fluctuations/
