Feeling down not loosing :(

Weight doesn't always come off overnight, and if you drank a lot of water yesterday you may still have water weight on you.

We fluctuate throughout the day. Certain things we eat may make our weight go up temporarily. It will even out.

I pay attention to patterns in weight. Like today I went down a pound but will not record that until I see it down for at least a few days.

And, I was the woman who ate once a day before and dropped weight quickly. But, when I started eating the right amount of cals my weight is coming off slower than it ever has in my entire life. But, I'm doing this so that I can have longevity so I am okay with that now.

Hang in there. It will work itself out you just have to be patient.

Eating one meal a day isn't really a healthy way to lose weight, but it sounds like you've changed that habit. It's better to eat 4 or 5 smaller meals which balances out your blood sugar and makes you feel full throughout the day (less likely to snack on unhealthy foods or eat convenience foods). Your weight will fluctuate daily... 3.5 L of water is a lot of water to drink in a day and also diet/exercise changes can cause your body to retain water a bit at first. Weight doesn't always come off overnight.. sometimes it's suddenly 1.5 in two days, sometimes it's 0.2 a day depending on how accurate your scale is. You should be losing 0.5-2lbs a week at most so don't expect a lb every night. But I would say that anything within a 3 lbs change up or down is likely water fluctuations and not fat loss... weigh yourself at the same time of the day once a week and you should see a gradual downward trend. Also if you get into a rhythm and eat healthy foods for awhile (not tons of sodium) you may find your water fluctuations get smaller - that's what's happened for me anyway.

Give it time. Everyone wants to lose it fast. Lose it right and it will stay off longer. Quit treating it like diet and treat it like a way you will live your life forever. The weight will come off if you are at a deficit and exercise will make you feel and look better along the way. Slow and steady babycakes

You didn't get in the situation you're in in one day. Don't expect to get out of it in one.

First, avoid the temptation to weigh yourself every day. Our weight can fluctuate by up to 5lb/day. Choose a day of the week and weigh yourself on the same day every week (preferably first thing in morning after you've emptied your bladder).

Second, are you weighing and logging every single thing that passes through your lips? You'd be surprised by how many calories can slip by us if we aren't weighing our food. Watch this:

Finally, don't worry about when you eat. If you're hungry, eat something, but make sure that it fits within your daily calorie limitation. If your calories in are less than the calories that you burn on any given day, you WILL lose weight.

Good luck!

That because you have put your body in starve mode . So till you get us to eating 3 meals aday and not 1 a day . your body will store so it does not think it is starveling.

Nonsense.

Absolute nonsense.

I'm starveling!! Whats for lunch? ?!!!
