I am SO depressed and unhappy with my body right now. Where do I begin? Three years ago I was at my goal weight thru WW. Exercising 5-6 nights a week, rotating cardio and weights. I am now 30lbs heavier, still exercising 5-6 nights a week, and still following a WW diet. I have had to go up in jean size, and believe me, it is not because of muscle.
I took heed to some of the advice and increased my calorie count. I was doing a little research as to maybe why I have been gaining. I did the RMR and such and mine was around 1500. So, according to WW scale, I was eating around 22 points which equals to about 1300 calories. Adding exercise, I was burning anywhere from 300 to 500 calories so that left 700 calories for my body, right? Please feel free to correct me, not sure that I'm understanding this right. So...I tried for three weeks to increase my calories, up to 35-38 points which is 1800 calorie range. ( I had got some information that 5 points equals 250 calories) Now I at least SIX more pounds heavier than three weeks ago!!!!! (Big tears falling)
Then on top of all that, I've done something in my lower back, so have had to take a week off, and we all know how that is without Cathe for a week.
I just don't know what I'm doing so wrong!
Sorry to be such a downer (and on a holiday), but I needed to vent.
Very frustrated,
Cara
