Gaining inches on 30day shred

Clareel

Hi all!

I've not posted before but have been using MFP to track my calories for a few years now! I'm following alternate day fasting and although I haven't been weighing, I've been measuring and had lost a total of 15 inches between February to the end of April when I started the shred.

Anyway, I'm half way through today so I thought I'd recheck my measurements but I'm a little disappointed to see that I've gained 3" around my waist and 2" around both my bust and hips

Like I say I haven't been weighing so I don't know if I've actually put any weight on, but I was hoping to be a bit smaller at least!

I'm going to keep going with it as I can see I'm getting more toned in my arms and legs which is great but just wondering if anyone had any ideas as I don't want to be another 7" wider by the end of it!

Thanks X

I did it back in October 2012 and lost 26 inches. Are u following a meal plan? I didn't, just went with basic knowledge on what was good and what was bad. Maybe at the end, you will lose were u gained?

Hi there thanks for the reply, wow 26 inches that is awsome! I was expecting to have lost a few by now really or at least wasn't expecting a gain!

I'm doing alternate day fasting (ADF) or JUDDD as a 'diet'. Basically eat only 500cals 3 days per week then 2000 other 4 days and at the end of the week you have your deficit. Perhaps I've been going over on my non fasting days bu even so, wouldn't have expected to GAIN inches around my hips, waist and bust!

I'm going to stick with it though like you say maybe it will come off at the end!?
