Yesterday's Weight: 287.6
Today's Weight: 293.2
I'm at a loss for words. I have no idea what's going on, here. Here's a look at my Diet yesterday, including a few possible red flags:
1,840 calories (vs. 2,260 suggested)
263g of carbs (vs. a suggested 311g) <
38g of fat (vs. a suggested 75g)
132g of protein (vs. a suggested 85g)
5,800mg of sodium (vs. a suggested 2,500) <
19g of fiber (vs. a suggested 30g) <
Some things to note, here.
CARBS: I'd been eating about 150g of carbs daily last week. So, even though I was still well under the 311 I'm trying to avoid, I was over 100g above what my body had been taking in. Maybe it's rebelling against the carbs by holding them in?
SODIUM: No way to sugarcoat this one. That's way too much salt for one day. But even so, is it enough to bring my weight up six pounds overnight?
FIBER: All the online calculators say I should be eating 30-35g a day. Looking at my food intake last week, I see that I haven't had over 20g once. Is it possible I'm just not processing my foods because I'm not providing my body with enough fiber?
I don't know what the answer is. My body is known for it's odd fluctuations, but normally in the amount of 2-3 unexplained pounds. Nothing like this. It's put me in a bad mood, as seeing that 293 on the scale was something I'd put behind me after dealing with it for days on end last week. I had to fight hard to get my weight to drop, and now I'm right back there fighting again.
And I didn't even get to enjoy a dish of Sesame Chicken, or four slices of Meat Lover's pizza to get me there.
Glad to see you posting again. Maybe with all of the sodium, you are holding onto water weight?
