Help, I’m struggling! :(
I do intermittent fasting. I eat low kcal and low carb and cut down my portion size. I don’t snack(only 2 times since the bet started). Only zero soda’s or water. Cut down my caffeine. I do a high energy cardio workout at least 1 hour a day 5/6 days a week and walk in a fast pace a minimum of 30 minutes daily.
In the first week I lost almost 2% of my bodyweight already. But now my weight is back to where I started?! I weigh myself same time same conditions. Is this a common thing? I feel so demotivated… Still continuing w what I am doing tho(it should work in the long term right)…
Is there anyone who can explain this?

- Good morning and welcome to Make a Plan Monday!
Typically Mondays are my busy days so rather than working out, I plan my week ahead. Meal planning, workouts, appointments/kid activities. Once I have my week laid out, it’s easier for me to stick to it.
This week we are under yet another heat advisory-it’s the Midwest at the end of July, I expect no less. So this means it’s morning workouts or gym workouts this week. And I’m not a morning person. But it will get done!
- ?????
Have me a nice little sprained ankle. So let’s hope my diet and light walking alone can get me through this haha 😅
- Not yet!!

- Good morning and happy Friday!
Today is the start of my weekend so that means time to do the adulting I put off during the week. Today’s plan is gym while kiddo 2 has weight lifting, menu planning, Costco, and then maybe a movie tonight. While I’m out and about, I’ll have my water bottle with me because it’s July and we’re under another heat advisory. Unfortunately I’m one of many who are chronically dehydrated and I’m trying to change that for me.
What are your weekend plans?
- 45 min swim - I cracked my watch so I can’t track properly.

07/22/2026 4:31PM in The DietBet Kickstarter - Double Your Winnings!Any perimenopausal ladies in the room with suggestions on how to lose body fat during this trying time?? I joined Diet Bet because I’m really struggling to get myself on track. Losing fat has never been too difficult with a little effort until now, and lord, is it suddenly stubborn. 😭
