Tell me what I am doing wrong, plz

I can assure you there is nothing wrong.I gained over 4 lbs last week due to the bad food i ate.But when i resumed my diet and the exercise and the 4lb gain has melted away.

LOL this is why i stopped weighing everyday! i puton water twice a month ovulation and t.o.m! about 6lb each time and it is heart breaking at times...but good news the highs are always follewed by lows with me! write on a calender and look when you are heavy and when you are not and weigh then! :blushing: :flowerforyou:

Well.... given the fact that you weighed yourself in the morning and are comparing the weight to your current weight ( at night).... I would take into consideration all of the food and water you drank today.

I usually fluctuate 5-8 pounds in one day. It is nothing to worry about. Tell us what you weigh after you use the restroom tomorrow

THIS!!!!

*** IT'S WATER WEIGHT, UNDIGESTED FOOD, ETC! Be consistent with your weigh in's.:happy: :happy: :happy: I weight myself every morning right when I get up (go pee first!) and totally naked. It is accurate, and you will get a better idea of your real progress. I can fluctuate 3-5 pounds in a day : )

Exactly this, and what everyone else has said along these lines.

A couple of times for curiosity's sake I've hopped on the scale before going to bed, but that's not a reading I take seriously - I just think it's amazing how much you lose overnight! You need to weigh in, like everyone's said, in the morning at a regular time.

There will be days when you're down, and days when you're unchanged or up - and even those up days are ok! There's always a tomorrow to get back on track and work it off, so you shouldn't get disheartened. You also shouldn't get addicted to stepping on your scale multiple times a day, because it won't do you any good.

My family came to visit and I gained nearly a kilo in the two days they were here, but that was fine - and less than a week later, I've got rid of that weight and a little extra, by not panicking and just eating more sensibly for the next few days ('sensibly', lol - I've had a pizza, falafel and a little bit of McD's this week!).

I'd say just relax, settle into a routine, and things will happen for you. ^^

I agree with this!
I weigh 3-4 lbs more in the evening than I do in the morning every single night. I weigh twice a day most days & what you saw was normal. Your weight can also fluctuate from morning to morning for reasons that other people have given (perhaps they didn't read that you were comparing your weight before you'd eaten & drunk all day to after you'd done those things).
Don't stress about it - if you worry about little fluctuations it's better to weigh less often.

It's food dear. U weigh less in the morning cuz there is no food in there and even less after u use the potty. When u start putting food in ur body, u will weigh more. That's all it is. Don't weigh at night.

You will be up at night, I guessing you have eaten food in the day time? Pick at time , a day and only weigh in once a week !

For me it's Thursday morning , after a visit to the bathroom, naked! :blushing:

Hoping on and of the scales is NOT a good idea...


You CAN do this

What I read was that you weighed this morning and then again tonight. You will always weigh more at night than you do in the morning. Weigh yourself in the mornings, prior to eating anything and always weight yourself around the same time of day. Do not be disappointed in yourself. I have struggled the past two weeks, I too gained 4 lbs and struggled to get it back off. One of the things I noticed, we were eating more sandwiches than normal, just due to busy schedueles. I finally told my husband I had to get back to a meat and veggie diet and I added an extra half an hour to my exercise. Finally, this morning, I've dropped all of those extra 4 lbs. You will have periods of time when you hit a plateau, it's frustrating, just keep doing what you know is right. I too have done Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, the cabbage soup diet, the "walk 10,000 steps," - you name it, I've tried it. So far, this diet is working for me. I'm not much on exercising - I hate to walk - to me walking is the most boring exercise there is. I've found a great solution for this, my kids had bought me a Wii game console, I went out at the beginning of this diet and bought the dance dance revolution game and I do it EVERY night for an hour. It has made a huge difference in my weight loss. I'm not at 36 lbs and counting. I pray it continues to work for me.

I wish you luck and know you will succeed, just be patient. I have to tell myself that every day.

Weighing twice a day is just silly. As others have said try once a week.

It probably isn't slowing down your weight loss as long as you're hitting your calorie limit but you are eating quite a bit of fairly empty calories, soda crackers, candy...etc.

don't weigh yourself twice a day, you'll only be disappointed.

& the literal weight of food youre digesting will move that scale too, it's not fat, or muscle, or even bloat... the food matter is still in you!


don't stress, and don't weigh more than once a week. Preferably in the morning, naked (or at least in the same clothes every time)
