[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About 3 weeks ago I self-started a weight loss regimen, basically using the principles of WW and Noom (I’ve done both in the past). I’ve reduced calories, reduced added sugars, reduced carbs, upped protein, etc. I’m tracking my intake using an app.

All went well week 1 and 2, I lost about 1.5 lbs each week. [b]This week … I gained back over a pound![/b] I reviewed all of my intake for the past 2 weeks, reflected on whether I was accurately tracking, and I am confident that I was.

Could I have messed up my metabolism and now my reduced intake isn’t enough to continue to lose on my plan? Or is it typical to occasionally have a stagnant or even increase one week even if making all the “right” choices?

Fwiw, my exercise level stayed the same, if anything I may have slightly increased it last week.

I’m feeling very discouraged because I feel I have been meticulous about changing my eating habits. [/quote]

It's easy to gain a pound of water weight in less than one minute. Make a line graph over the course of weeks to months to get actual results. Minor dips or gains are meaningless and just serve to frustrate you.
