Not losing weight at all since getting back to Japan
 
Grumble, grumble...

Since getting back from St. Louis my weight loss has not been going well.
Yet I've been perfectly good on my diet.

The day I got back my weight was 88.0 kg. It dropped over the next couple of
days to 87.6 kg, one day it was down to 87.2 kg even. Then it started
creeping up again... 87.6 kg, 87.8 kg (last Friday, meaning a week-to-week
gain of 0.2 kg), then it hovered back on 88.0 again and this morning, shock!
It was 88.4 kg!

So it's like almost two weeks of basically no change - even a bit of a gain.

Why would it be easier to lose weight in the U.S. of all places? :)

I've been tempted to tweak with my tried-and-true calorie/exercise formula,
but I'm resisting doing that.

Instead, I think I'm going to mix up the things I'm eating and try some more
variety. Maybe my body needs a change and is in a rut. Or maybe one of the
things I eat all the time has more calories in it than I think it does?

Were you doing a lot of walking, more than usual, on your trip?

Hang in there Doug................same thing happened to me over the last
few weeks and then all of a sudden I dropped 2.2 lbs. This week isn't going
much better, but I'm sticking to my plan.

Change is good and variety is definitely good.

Stay tough!

I think you've been through this before and you always manage to get
back into weight-loss mode. Mixing things up a bit is a good idea.
How about adding a little more exercise or a different type of
exercise?

Did you do more walking than usual while in the states? Did you do a
different type of exercise or eat different foods?

Hang in there!

I've mentioned the lady I sit with at the meetings who lost 160 pounds.
She lost the 100 the first year and the 60 her second year. She wasn't
doing anything different other than decreasing her points as she got
down to lower levels but it's easy to see that she was no longer losing
as quickly.

If you have been travelling it could well be fluid retention. We've
seen it quite a few times on here.

Good kuck

rechecking calories is a good thing, laughing cow snuck in an extra couple
of grams of fat a year or so after coming out, and it could be your body is
settling down from all of the travel, hang in there, Lee
