IM so depressed...

I have been a lifetime member of WW for lamost 6 months now. I got married 3 weeks ago and went on my HM. It was a Sandals resort, so all you could eat and drink. I left weighing 137 pounds. I went to weigh in yesterday and I weighed 149.9!! ***!!
I dont understand!! I excercised while on the HM and we did a lot of swimming and hiking, etc. Im not going to lie, I ate more than usual and I did have a few drinks, but nothing to warrant a 13 lb weight gain!! Plus, all my regular clothers still fit me!! If I gained 13 lbs, wouldnt my clothes not fit??
I am so depressed right now I dont now what to do. I did notice that there was a lot of salt int heir food, but could I still be holding it 1 week later? The WW people crossed out my weigh in last night and told me to come back the last day of the month, since I have the whole month to weigh in!! Im back to my points this morning, and the gym 5 days a week....I hope I can get over this..

It's absolutely possible that you're holding a lot of water and stuff. If you've done everything right (and excercized and all) then there shouldn't be any reason to splurge a little now and then--especially on your honeymoon.

Don't worry so much about the number---maybe their scales are off, maybe you were wearing heavier clothes.

Just know that your clothing still fits fine and you have a month to get back on track!

Feel better! And post those honeymoon pix.

It is very possible you are just retaining water. It would be very difficult to gain that much weight in the matter of a week.

Are you close to having your period? That might play a role in it as well.



PS - Congrats on your wedding!

I have been struggling on WW since my wedding. The HM didn't get me too badly, but then we went right into the holidays and BAM - big trouble. I am still really struggling with the 8-9 pounds I have gained since the wedding.

You could be retaining a lot of water, since many of the foods you ate were probably rich and salty. Also, if you were drinking more than usual, they say that you metabolize alcohol much differently than food. Stick to your pts and go to meetings every week to keep you on track, even if you aren't weighing in. You lost it before, you'll do it again!

Don't be depressed! You'll lose it easily. Especially considering it's highly unlikely it's a 'true' weight gain. Once you start eating the way you normally do, the weight will come right off.

It just ***** to have to drop back down to 20 points a day....

Good Luck- as a new WW lifetime member, I'm here for encouragement if you need it!
