Four? FOUR?

lina1131

The scale was up FOUR pounds this morning. Should I blame it on the stupid dairy queen blizzard I had yesterday as a treat? But FOUR POUNDS. :noway: I know, it has to be water weight. I hate water weight.

I'm back on track today, ready to kick some butt at the gym, but i'm just :mad: :grumble: at the four pounds.

I was up this morning too (2 lbs) but I refuse to log it.. :explode:

has to be water weight, as I have been doing everything I'm supposed to...

maybe there's something in the cosmos that's making some of us heavier than we really are :laugh:

I'm going to be extra vigilant today, and hopefully the payoff will come tomorrow with going the other direction, and THEN some!

I don't log gains, only losses! :laugh:

Four what? Remember what "fat" looks like? There is no way that overnight you grew one of these...let alone four:

Hi

That doesn't sound right...I've had splurges before and it hasn't shown up on the scale the very next day
I would keep up working out and watching your cals and weigh in next week (and don't log in those 4 pounds...blah!)

My period ended a few days ago, so it shouldn't be that, but who knows?

I'm on my way out to workout. I'm hoping I can get rid of these four crappy pounds in the next few days. It's just frustrating because I could be working on losing more weight, but i'm working on relosing what I had already lost. :indifferent:

I hardly go by the scale when it comes to a few pounds. The smallest things can effect the scale-if you ate/drank anything, had to go to the bathroom, had clothes on... Dont stress about it. It will work itself out.

Hey girl! I wouldn't worry TOO much yet. Give it a few days and see what happens.

I know I am retaining a TON of water during the Summer months. It REALLY sucks. I have been drinking more tea (especially iced green tea), and it seems to help flush it out. Maybe try that.

One meal or cheat thing like a blizzard isn't 14,000 calories! (4 lbs worth):laugh: :laugh: I mean, there is just NO way that caused it!!

See how your body adjusts as the week goes on. For Pete's sake, stop weighing every day people! I know a lot of you do it and maybe some of you understand what the body does...but I know I would be depressed if I weighed every day! It's just not an accurate account of how you are doing.

Hugs! Hang in there girl!

I agree...don't weigh every day unless you can mentally handle it. I have finally come to the point where it doesn't mean much to me to hop on the scale and move on even if it says three up or whatever. I just drink more water and the next day or so I am where I need to be. I learned over the last month to not stress over a pound here or there. YIKES!

You guys are telling the queen of stepping on the scale to not step on the scale. :laugh: I'm not really freakin' out too much over it. It's the most water weight I have ever gained since starting to lose this weight, so it was kind of like :indifferent: :sick:

Anyways, I had a good workout and I think I just sweat 4 pounds off! :bigsmile:

I never add back gains either....as long as it consistently going down....its usually water weight or TOM bs...:grumble:

hugs!
