Please don't take this the wrong way, but my guess is you are doing it wrong.

Are you actually measuring and weighing? Please don't assume to know what 2 oz or 1/2 cup look like.

My best advise is to equip yourself with the tools. Get a food scale and weigh out your meats, etc. Get the measuring cups and measure 1/2 cup of rice or pasta.

Do this and the plan will work!! Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: I went through the same thing as you last year. I was like "what is going on" I'm being good and not losing. I finally said let me buy the food scale. Sure enough, if I was eating a banana I would say 2 pts for the banana. I bought the scale and weighed it and guess what - it was a 4 pt banana. Now do that with every food and I was way over. And here I was thinking I was being good!!

You can do it!! Chat Icon

I bought a scale when we first started and we have a measuring cup. I am doing ww with my dh. We measure and weight everything. We make meals together....plan our breakfast and lunch.

I think since we are doing it together... it is a lot easier. I must say...I am VERY proud of myself. So far I am down 4.5 lbs. I started my second week on Monday.

We definitly bonded over WW.

Excellent!! Then just give it some time. Sometimes it takes time for your efforts to show up on the scale. 4.5 pounds is great!!! Chat Icon
