Not losing weight

I have done what I'm supposed to do but I have gained weight.

This is my third week on BodyFast and my third weigh in. I initially lost 4 1/4 lb. I weighed myself this morning and I have gain 3 lb back. This is so disheartening. I have been eating healthy and haven’t been drinking. I have also been adding more exercises to my days. How long should I give it before I decide it’s not going to work for me? Ps I have just over a stone to lose.

Hi, thanks for your request.   

If you want to change your fasting plan  you only have to abort your current fasting  week or wait for it to end.  After that you have access to all the plans and can choose a new  one.  

I hope  this helps!

How can you choose a different week plan manually?

Hi Angela, thanks for your comment.


It often takes some weeks until the body adjusts itself to  the new eating habit of intermittent fasting. Therefore it is possible  that you don't lose weight in the first weeks. That differs from person  to person. I have a few tips for you:


+ If you didn't lose weight, you should consider prolonging your  fasting hours or fasting more often. That's what our Coach does - he  adjusts your fasting plans according to your goals and progress. But you  can also choose a different week plan manually.

+ Intermittent fasting is no fast "wonder diet" which often leads  to a yo-yo effect. It is a long-term change of your eating habits.  That's why weight loss can take some time.

+ In the eating periods you shouldn't overeat - or eat more than you would usually eat without fasting.

+ If you have acute food cravings: stay active, go for a walk, meet  friends and drink lots of water (to glasses are recommended).

+ You should avoid sugar and sweetened drinks also in the eating  periods. If you really want to eat sugar, then directly after a larger  meal, to let your blood sugar regulate itself better. This also reduces  the hunger during fasting periods.


Kind regards, your BodyFast-Team
