Only lost 1lb

[loubyl00]

Im 4 weeks out and have been on purées for 2 weeks now. Did my weekly weigh in today and I've lost a measly ONE POUND. Can't believe it! I've eaten 2-3 tblsps of mush 3 times a day.
What am I doing wrong. I'm following the rules. Gutted isn't the word.

my guess is that you're not eating enough and your body is storing fat, can u try to up your fluids and food? dont worry mate, it will start again when it realises its going to be fed lol xxx

 

[TwinkleTwinkle]

Caren is right, Lou ... how many calories are you taking in? You should be having around 700 to 800 a day & 2 litres of fluid at this stage or your bod will go into starvation mode & hang on for grim death to it's fat stores. Good luck, lovely xxx :wave_cry:

your weight can plateu with every stage you go on.. so dont worry too much about it... and a 1lb... hun thats a huge slab of butter xxx

Ah dont worry hun, its happened to lots of us. i know how it feels but it will kick in again sweet x

 

[NOMOREyoyo]

Dont be dissapointed, you may start to see a pattern forming of a low loss one week followed by a higher one the week after hunni....just because you weigh weekly doesnt mean that your body co-operates weekly xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey Lou, your weight didnt all go on in one week, so its not all going to come off in one week, my hospital long term say 1-2 lbs a week is what they want.

Don't worry your body is being a meanie this week lol, it will come off, don't fear.

Thank you everyone. Feel lots better about it.

I think Caren and Twink are right. I think I'm having less than 400 Calories a day. So gonna up it now I'm on soft food. And I'm not drinking enough. Go to Egypt on holiday a week Tuesday, so want to feel good for then. X

Hey Claire,

We have been to Egypt quite a few times and really love it. Can't wait for some sunshine and rest. We go to Taba, it's really quiet there, cos we're old lol. Hope you find somewhere great to stay.

I am really looking forward to it - I am going with my ex & his family (cant stand him but am still close with my mum-in-law & sis-in-law), there's 5 adults and 4 kids 16,15,14,13 going and we are looking at the busy part of Naama Bay so there's something for everyone..... We lost my ex father-in-law in April this year after he was diagnosed with cancer beginning of Feb & it broke my M-I-L's heart, they'd been together years, 1st loves etc! So we've all put our differences aside & pulled together as a family (all except my ex, who is prize prick but his prob not mine )

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
