strange measurements and weight

wendywoolley

hello i had a really bad week and ended up puting back on the 5lbs i had lost but i have since done my measurements and i have lost an inch from my hips half an inch from my neck but put half an inch on my waist does that seem strange to anyone else

Nope, it means you lost weight, you're just bloated and carrying around a little water/food weight, nothing that will last.

yup, what the above poster said. Scales lie! Lol.

Most likely water retention, if your sodium levels were high during that time then thats exactly what it will be. I drink in excess of 30 glasses of water a day due to my high sodium intake

I bet you if you measured a few other places as well you"ll have lost more inches.

I firmly believe in measuring, it has really helped me realise what's going at times when the scales mess with my mind.
The fact that the up one is your waist does seem to fit 'your bloated' theory.
Hang in there, do better next week and keep measuring.
Good luck.
