Slowly Giving Up

A couple of days ago, I was flat-out pissed. Now I'm just befuddled and a little sad.

I woke up to a pound gain today. VLCD 21. Couldn't begin to tell you why, because I have no idea why. POP. Plenty of water and sleep. Not particularly stressed.

I'm truly at a loss. I don't know what's going on, and I'm not sure I can convince myself to care much longer. 21 days in and I'm only 3 pounds lighter than my LIW from November, which I stabilized perfectly at. I've never had such disappointing results.

Putting 2.2lbs on in the past week with TOM nowhere in sight and no cheating isn't something I've yet found an answer or suggestions anywhere on the forum on. I feel like my body is fighting me every step o the way now. I don't know what else to do.

    Did you change your delivery this round, or brand?? I understand how frustrating this can be, truly. Have you checked your measurements? Also, have you noticed any change in your 'texture'? You may be getting ready to have a 'whoosh'. Hang in!

    Nope. I admit, I'm a creature of habit. Same brand, via injection. Adjusted my dose down a little this round because it was too high, but that was the only change. I have taken my measurements a couple of times, but they haven't changed in the past week.

    I'm not sure what you mean by texture? But I'm all in on a whoosh! LOL!

    Hey! Thanks for the suggestion! I've actually done Cali kickers off and on for years now. It hasn't helped this round.

    On a related note - I actually like them. Is that a little weird?

    Often before a "whoosh" the texture of the fat changes. Looking and feeling like liquid... it is a very strange feeling. I have a link on my other computer I will try to remember to post tomorrow. Sorry it is going rough...

    Ok so I was playing with my stomach fat and it felt like such jelly. I was thinking man this is sooo flabby I can't give up. I am obviously not toned but I did notice it felt different. Is that what ur talking about. I have heard nothing about that. Super curious.

    2014nycme - Thanks for posting your info about the whoosh, I saw it this morning. I knew the theory of fat cells filling up with water before emptying out, but always wondered if there was any science behind it.

    mraven99 & nycme - Whether I care to admit it or not, I'm probably hyperaware of my body. Having gastric bypass surgery years ago taught me to be acutely aware of how I feel (mentally, physically, and physiologically) fairly quickly. I can honestly say I've never noticed a texture change. Maybe it doesn't happen to everyone? Or maybe I just haven't noticed? Or maybe I'm not close enough to goal to notice? I'll definitely be paying even more attention now.

    When I experience stalls, my doc asks me if I committed the following "HCG sins":
    - Did I use the wrong soap, shampoo, conditioner?
    - Am I wearing make-up?
    - Am I drinking my water?
    - Am I getting enough sleep?
    - Am I using flour/sugar-filled spices (like garlic powder--who knew?)
    - Do I have my measurements correct (3.3 vs. 4 oz. meat)?

    Hope you've broken out of your stall. I'm just about to start R2P2 tomorrow and dread stalls.

    I did break out of the stall, thankfully. Thanks for your post! Best of luck in P2!
