Scale going up?

cmbdlh · May 2019

Hello y’all. I’ve been at the gym for 2 months, watching everything I eat for the most part. Had an ice cream and cake last week. Nothing to rock the boat. For the last 2 months the scale has been going up. I’m at a loss so I’m going to eliminate salt, sugar and I really don’t eat bread, chips, pizza etc. I drink a lot of water, but retain water like a camel, eat about 1300 calories a day. I don’t eat my exercise calories. I have belly bloat pants aren’t getting loose?? . I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong. Has anyone else had this? Or should I just go to the dr?!!

I am curios with what others say, I had lost 25 pounds in less than 60 days and now I go up a few and down a few pounds but can't get off more than 25 pounds and I have a lot to lose! I don't drink water, my fault I know. I need to get to the gym to walk in the water, I am disabled so I can just go for a walk. I also eat only 1,300 calories. I hope we can both get answers!

I’m eating MFP’s calorie allowance of 1200 and my weight is going up daily. In March I was down to 109lbs and yet this morning I’m 115lbs! I’ve been refined sugar free and keeping to calories. At a loss and gutted!

and also, are you all using food scales to weight ALL foods and carefully double checking entries you use in MFP?

Definitely take the time to read the stickies at the top of the forum pages. This one, in particular, is very helpful: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1080242/a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants/p1

I also really liked this one: http://physiqonomics.com/eating-too-much/
It gets you to really take a look at your eating habits and tighten up where you need to.
