I fell way off the wagon - please help! Tuesday, June 12, 2012 11:05 AM (permalink)
Hi everybody!
Ugh, this is hard to type.
I am now on day 11. I fasted (at least 2 shakes, mostly 3 shakes) per day all last week and went from 146 to 141.4. My goal weight is 135, so I was blissfully happy.

And then the weekend hit, and I totally self sabotaged. It was jam packed with party after party, drink after drink, snack after snack. I knew my the scale would reflect my actions, so I did not weigh myself yesterday. I had 2 shakes and ate a sensible dinner. I also drank an enormous amount of water (like a gallon or more.)

This morning when I got the scale (after the bathroom), I was 148 pounds, 2 pounds MORE than when I started. Did I really manage to gain 7 pounds in a weekend? Am I retaining water or something? I didn't even think it was possible to gain weight so quickly.

I'm getting back on track now (although it's hard to do completely broken-hearted). Has anyone out there had a similar experience? How did you get going again? I have 24 days until my big event, and now I have even further to go.

Any and all comments appreciated. 
Thanks so much,
Annie

      Hi.  Don't beat yourself up.  Today is a new day.  Once you get off track, get back on with the next meal or the next day.  The next time (at a minimum) you have a bad weekend/meal, try to drink the almased before going to bed.  It will still help you.  I went on vacation right after my week of fasting. I ate bad during the day (no willpower) but in the hotel at night before I went to bed, I drank the shake.  When I returned, I had not gained an ounce.
       
      This is just something to keep in mind in case you run into a snag.
       
      Best of success to you
