Hi my name is Kimmy. I started WW two days ago. What am I doing
wrong? I have been eating right for the last two days. Yesterday morning when I woke up and weighed myself, I didn't gain or lose anything. This morning when I woke up, I gained 2 pounds! This doesn't make any sense, and I can't figure out where I am going wrong. Any ideas? |

It's impossible to know if you are doing anything wrong unless you state what you have been eating. Are you weighing and measuring your food? Are you drinking your daily water? Are you truly following the program? Audrey |

This doesn't make any sense, and I can't figure out where I am going wrong. Any ideas? Hi Kimmy! Just keep at it and like the previous poster suggested, give it a week. Count your points, TRACK EVERYTHING, follow the good health guidelines, and find low point snacks for those inbetween times. There are a ton! It works, totally, if you do your part to truly count and track. If you are counting, and tracking it all, and measuring what is needed, etc. it will work. : ) Just because you don't see an intial loss within the first two days of starting, don't give up or give in. You are on the right track, and someone reminded me one time that all the weight didn't come on in one week, so don't expect to take it off that fast either, haha. I cannot tell you how many times I have reminded myself that this is a slow but steady race. Persistance pays off, and you will succeed if you follow the plan! Good luck and post here often! : ) |

Kimmy you're only two days in! Toss that scale! Even during a week
where say you did everything right you'd be amazed at how much that weight goes up and down over the course of the week. It will drive you nuts. Stick to weighing yourself once a week. You'll get WAY less anxious. And the results will be more palatable! Drink that water! Melissa |

Kimmy
You may not be doing anything wrong. It could be water retention due to salt intake, or just the normal variations we all get from time to time. Give yourself some time to get used to the plan. It does work. I lost 50 lbs on WW. KarenO On 2 May 2007 04:49:02 -0700, in alt.support.diet.weigh****chers, Kimmy wrote: Hi my name is Kimmy. I started WW two days ago. What am I doing wrong?

Yes, I am weighing and measuring everything. I am drinking so much
water I could float away. LOL! I am really hoping I am following it the way I am supposed to. I am not actually going to any meetings or anything. I am just getting my information as far as points are concerned from my mom, who has done WW for years. Kimmy On May 2, 10:29 am, "ahmward" wrote: "Kimmy" wrote in message oups.com...

Thanks for the motivation. And congrats to you on 50lbs lost! That
is amazing. On May 2, 4:29 pm, Karen Officer wrote: Kimmy You may not be doing anything wrong.

You are so right. It didn't take a day to put it on, so it won't come
off in a day. I was just so hoping to see some sort of a loss. It was just hard seeing that gain. I will keep on at it, and hopefully it will start coming off. Since I can't afford to go to the meetings and get all the good information, I feel like I am a bit lost when it comes to WW. Hopefully getting tips here will help me. I plan on sticking around.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but the fact that your mom has been
doing it for years, doesn't mean that she's doing it right. Get yourself to one meeting, stay for the getting started session and make sure to do it right... That's not the problem though... if you really think that you'd see results in 2 days.. you've got a lot of work to do on bringing your expectations back to reality... Weigh yourself in once a week... after 3-4 weeks see how you're doing.. if on average you're losing between 0.5 and 2 lbs per week, you'd doing just fine, less than that, you need to see how well you're following the plan, if you're losing more than 2 lbs a week on average... EAT! Good luck... remember it's more about health, than about losing fast! Will~ "Kimmy" wrote in message oups.com... Yes, I am weighing and measuring everything.

Hi, what you are doing wrong is looking at your weight too much, that is all
some people gain for a week or so just because their body is starved for good food, do NOT let the scale rule your life/eating/emotions, welcome and good luck, Lee Kimmy wrote in message oups.com...
