Your history and the physical evidence all indicate water
retention. I know it can be hard to stick with your program
when the scale isn't cooperating but chances are you are
losing fat. Keep eating and journaling your points, keep
take your medications, watch your sodium intake, and keep
going. Eventually you'll see the results of your good
efforts. Here's hoping the weather cooperates and helps you
see a loss on the scale next week.

Today was bad news at WI , I was up 4.2 lb!!!! I thought I had a pretty
decent week but apparently not. It has been warm the past 2 days and my
ankles are swollen and the leader said it could be water retention. I do
take a water pill daily but my ankles still swell when it gets warm outside.
I sure hope she is right and next week it will go away!
Hope everyone has a good week!

Betty:

Your leader is almost certainly right!! You are most likely
retaining water. Some people retain facts and some people
retain water! I retain water!!

Hey - sorry you had a bad week 🙁 I'm like you, going up even though I've
been doing it all right - i'm relying on the water theory too - so here's
hoping it's true for me and you and that next week it's all drained away 🙂

Don't let this discourage you, it could be you are in for a
woosh next week. SOmetimes our bodies retain water like
crazy for no real reason, have a look at your salt intake,
and your water intake. Drinking more water helps the body to
not retain so much. Michelle Ozzie in Switzerland

Thanks Linda. I am sure most is water and I definitely will
not quit now. I could easily quit but I definitely must lose
the weight. Next week will be better, I am sure. Betty

I used to get a lot of that, and still do a bit. It's less
now that I've lot some of the excess weight, so keep going!
LOTS of things get better! 🙂

I know it might sound a leeeettle mad, but try upping your
water intake just a little: that too might help, as will
walking. Not so easy in the heat, but keeping the body
moving and pumping that excess fluid about means you get rid
of it quicker, and it doesn't pool in your feet. When you
rest, put your feet UP - above hip level if you can, and
keep flexing your toes.

Sorry to hear about the gain. Hopefully it is mostly water
and will disappear by the next WI. Hang in there.

Have you talked to your doctor lately about the swollen
ankles? Maybe the doc can adjust your water pill.
