Feeling really discouraged

Discussion/Support 💬

Hi all,

35F. Been at my goal weight and even slightly better for several months. I haven’t changed a thing, if anything, I’ve been more under my deficit and exercise has increased.

I hit my lowest weight about 10 days ago. 3 days after, it jumped and has been going up/stayed at 2 pounds more since the loss 10-11 days ago. So I’m straight at 2 pounds more weight after this time period. The only difference I can think of is that where I am at it went from freezing cold outside to very warm since then.

I am just feeling very discouraged. I cannot drop my calories any lower or I can’t exercise and I cannot expend any more exercise. I put in 32k steps on average per day. I have felt much more puffy in these warmer days so maybe that is it, but that also translates to how clothing fits so I do not feel slimmer. Also, this is not hormone related and that’s all I will say.

I’ve never seen a jump this sharp that stuck around when even if I was not completely keeping track of calories, it wouldn’t be 2 pounds worth of eating as I haven’t eaten any thing different or extra.

Just needing to vent or tell nobody. Thank you
