Saturday morning I weighed myself and was happy to see i lost four pounds.
Same night I had six shots and a mix, hardly ate that day just strawberries and mango. Weighed myself today I'm up four pounds? What is this....I can't stop crying.

Also. I ate a sandwich lastnight....bread and meat has been something I cutout of my diet for a month

    Sounds like water retention to me. Don't panic. Unless your shots and sandwhich equaled like 12,000 calories, theres no way they made you gain that much.

    this.

    op, it's just water weight, if you're absolutely inconsolable over what a scale says, you may need to talk to someone about your relationship with food.

    your body is going to naturally fluctuate within a few pounds range to start with.

    I don't think it is the shots you need to be worried about…

    You didn't magically lose four pounds and then gain it back by drinking 6 shots.

    You know better than this. You HAVE to know better than this.

    My body has gotten use to 500 Calories a day.....Sunday I ate more then usual but still healthy..I did not eat junk food.
    Is it possible my body is holding on to the sandwich?

    You need to eat more food than 500 calories a day.

    Yes I know this...common sense.
    But how about if my body has gotten use to 500cals?
    I haven't ate carbs- and then I go and eat a sandwich ...I needed something in my system I felt hungover.
    Regret.

    Your strawberries and mango have carbs. Your shots and mix drink have carbs. Your body is not used to eating 500 calories, your body is PLEADING for more.

    Common sense has to actually be applied for it to be of any use. Why would you do this to yourself (and I'm asking about the 500 cals, not the 6 shots)?

    You have been given good advice in this thread. You may choose to ignore it but it stands regardless. You need professional help. No one here can help you.

    You're 26 years old, apparently. Time to put on your big girl panties and seek professional help as I stated. Oh look... I did it again. USEFUL ADVICE.

    I'm surprised you were able to keep conscious after 6 shots. Please seek help!

    Also. I ate a sandwich lastnight....bread and meat has been something I cutout of my diet for a month
    I'm curious what you do eat. No bread or meat and in another post "no carbs". What's left to eat?? If you've been doing this for a month with zero weightloss (I went to your profile) you need to try something new.

    If they are a troll, they should probably seek help for that too. Seeking attention like that sounds like a bit of a problem too.

    If not, it appears they may have an unhealthy relationship with food and alcohol.

    Good luck to you, OP.

    I am seeing weight loss now....that's why I'm freaking out about the four pounds.
    I eat fruit and veggies and scrambled eggs....I don't drink juices or sodas, I drink coffee still.
    When i eat fruits I eat them periodically throughout the day, when my belly starts feeling hungry ill pop a strawberry or two.

    Dude, get help. Stop making excuses, stop trying to explain it to us. Nothing you can say can convince us you're "fine" on 500 calories a day. Get freeken help.

    You need more than that. Put meat back in your diet. All the veggies and fruit are carbs..their good carbs, but you need more calories and protein. What about any calicum? You need that as well. If your doing this for a life style change, there is no way you can keep this up. It will only seriously backfire on you, and you'll put it all back on plus some.
