WHY AM I NOT LOSING WEIGHT?

Following are a few points that may help you understand why you may not have lost weight at your last weigh in

* Not drinking at least 2 litres of water

* Having bread, rice, pasta, crackers, breakfast cereals

* Having fruit juice

* Having alcohol

* Mixing shakes with milk rather than water

* Having dairy products eg. milk, etc

* Having more than 2 fruits per day, fruits not on the allowed list or larger servings

* Certain medications

* Having mainly or too many carrots as your veggie requirement

* Having potatoes, or more than the aloowed serves of peas, pumpkin and sweet potato

* Eating to many nuts or seeds (refer to your good fats guide)

* Havings honey or sugar in tea/decaffeinated coffee/shakes

* Having chickpeas, kidney or cannelloni beans

* Consuming too much dressing, sauces, mayo, gravies etc or those with greater than 5g carbs per serve

* Having baked beans

* Too many treat options or having them too often

* Having more than one coffee per day or having more than 3 cups of normal tea per day

* Having lots of tea/decaff coffee with milk so that total milk intake is high

* Having normal soft drinks rather than having diet and caffeine free versions

* Having powdered soups available from supermarket

* Having regular jelly instead of diet jelly

* Skipping meals

* Exercising? - If you exercise a lot, this can increase muscle mass. Muscle weighs more than fat - so you may have lost fat but built muscle, which makes you appear heavier on the scales but you should find that your clothes will feel loser as you go along!!! ( you will need to follow our exercise guidelines)

apart from the clear nonsense that "Muscle weighs more than fat" I suspect they can all be demonstrated to be false one at a time by someone.
