So I feel like I have gained weight but haven't exceeded my goal of maintain, my stomach is less defined and can pinch more skin than usual, I noticed that a few days ago. Help?

    If this is something that is just a few days going on, you're describing your post title. Sounds like water retention. Maybe you increased sodium intake? It should pass in any case.

    Can you verify the weight gain? (meaning, do you have access to a scale on a regular basis?)

    Like jwdieter says, it is likely just water retention. Or possibly even just gas from something you ate. It should pass.

    If you have legitimately not eaten more food than you would need to maintain your weight, then it's not fat gain. It is water.

    About 2 pounds, and I have been over on sodium but trying to drink a lot of water
