Hello. As just posted in the weigh in, i have lost half a pound this week.

In order to lose this fantastic half pound, I have eaten like an angel, all fruit and veg and lean food, litres of water etc. I have visited the gym five days out of seven, and on two of those days I did two classes. I did a good variety of cardio and toning work. I have gone to bed hungry every night.

Sometimes I wonder why I bother dieting at all.

I'm desperately looking for an answer here. My period started yesterday. Now, I know you retain water BEFORE your period but do you weight heavier ON it as well??

If it's not that, I don't know what it is. I am a really good dieter. I always lose weight - usually about five or six pounds in the first two weeks. But not this time.

Hi Nikki,

They do say you can gain between 2 & 4 lbs whilst on, so think of it like that!

Whenever I'm on I always put on 3 lbs, but the following week it's off no problemo!!

PS:- if it doesn't then you can me!

Hi Nikki,

I've kind of replied to this already in the weigh in.

I was the same. The first week my weight didn't change, the next week I'd gone up 4lbs and this week I've lost 4lbs (but am also doing the monthly battle).

I think you're doing too much exercise. Is it possible that you need to eat more maybe? Or does that sound silly? I know I read somewhere that going hungry isn't always good for weight loss..

Hello,

Feeling better now. Despite the lack of weight loss, I have lost just over an inch from my waist and when Nick came over last night he gave me a hug and said, "God, where've you gone?? Have you lost weight?"

So it must just be a heavy thing, not a fat thing!!!!

Anyway, I don;t really NEED to lose weight. I just like being 9 stone - I lost two stone last year and I was terrified cos I'd put 9lb back on...... but I can take my time losing it again instead of panicking and wanting it to melt away over night...... silly me!!!

Thanks for the support,

Nikki xxxx
