Ok, so I haven't exercised in a while because my kid was sick and up all night, then I had shingles and could hardly move my leg, and then vacation. Well, I got back to it this week and as usual, I have lost nothing. Sometimes after going back to exercising after a long lazy period, I have even gained weight. Anyone else experience this or know why it happens?

    Water gain from new routines which will eventually work itself out.

    Body retaining water from working again...

    Thanks! I'm so obsessive, and will have to stay off of the scale until Monday. Seeing the same or higher numbers doesn't exactly make you want to work out again. lol

    I gained 4 pounds in the first week of Slim in 6. I was devastated, I have since lost those pounds plus about 2 pounds and 7 inches.
