Re: I'm gaining 1 pound a day in weight... help!

Thanks talkingmountain! I have definitely kissed goodbye to fat in my diet, so it's just a matter of time before things adjust.
I am going to quit the salt - I add a lot (maybe a teaspoon per day), because I have become accustomed to it. If I don't quit, I will just keep adding more and more as my taste buds get used to it.
It's good to know the taste will only be more bland for a few days!. That is encouraging. Thank you!
Hi frozenveg. Thanks for your reply.
Yes, it is very odd indeed. I can feel it piling on, by the day. I feel very uncomfortable in my abdomen, and my arms and legs are jellylike (water). Obviously it isn't fat.
Yes, the pdf highlighted that to lose weight more quickly I need to go easy on the flours and grains. I haven't had any flours, but I have had oats, which are grains. Well, until today - I had some fat-free bread (well, at least no added fat).
I have been eating a lot of lentils, and peas. I think there is a lot of protein in peas.
I have not been drinking enough water and I have not been exercising enough.
However, the rapid weight gain (8 pounds in 6 days) is very unusual, and at 40 years of age I have a lot of dieting experience, and I can say I have never, ever gained weight on any weightloss program before today!
I shall keep calm, and carry on...
Many thanks.
