    I completely lost my mind this week. Been eating like crap since Monday. gained 9 pounds since Monday weigh in. Hopefully it's all glycogen and water :| I've been eating almost 4000 calories per day for the past 3 days. urgh. back to the grind today.....

    Yep, up 3 pounds. That's over 3 days of eating whatever I wanted and I also did keep up with exercising except yesterday, just didn't have time. :bigsmile:

    I actually spent the last few days at elevation, skiing. No matter how much I ate, I burned so much more and had low nets for the day. Today up 3.8 pounds. I'm thinking water retention/muscle recovery, because there is NO WAY I gained almost 4 pounds burning 4000 cals a day and netting way less than that. (please I know daily low nets aren't the best, however it is not a daily thing, and was not done intentionally to lose. Was just having fun above the clouds and in the snow!)

    Thanks for posting this. I was up 1.5lbs and very upset this morning. Everyone here's responses have helped me get a little perspective :)

    Yep, and up 2.2 lbs. Considering I had a bottle of wine and salted my ham, some of it is water retention, some is food weight, and some might be a gain. I'll be back on track in January, so I'm not too concerned.

    I weighed myself and was happy to find I weigh the same as I did at the beginning of the week. No gain, no loss - which was my goal for this week.

    Yes, up about 6 pounds. Worked out and it went down about 3 pounds after. I figure I will lose the rest between now and January.

    I did! Up 2 lbs since my last weigh in on December 15th. I haven't been exercising as much and have been eating meals consisting only of cookies and chocolate multiple times over the last week and a half since I last weighed in, however. Not to shabby!

    no why would i do that? I only weigh myself once a week
    no matter what the scale says I will lose the rest of the weight in the new year & I am not going to worry about it

    Remember 3500 cals is roughly equal to 1 lb. So unless you ate 10,500 cals OVER maintenance in the last couple days, those "3 extra lbs" you gained are prolly just sodium and general fluctuation...

    I weigh in everyday, and even though I know everything in the above quote, why doesn't the scale ever have "general fluctuation" DOWN?????

    I was up 1.5 pounds today, could have been worse.

    ETA: BUT, looking at my history over "the holidays" counting from Halloween, I am down 4.5 pounds.

    I did. Up 4 lbs. but that wasn't just from Christmas day, more like a December hiatus. Just really needed to know what I was working with so i could start back up honestly.

    Well, I was pretty freaked out by my number this morning. :huh: Yesterday, my scale read "error, error, error, error." Today, I'm surprised it didn't start smoking when I stepped on it.

    Did anyone weigh themselves today after Christmas ? or are you waiting until January?
    Was I the only weird on to do this ? lol
    How much did you gain if you did?

    I just wanted to weigh myself right after Christmas so I know how much I've gained so I don't wait til January an it was my way of avoiding counting the calories . I'm still enjoying the Christmas food , only gained 1.5 lbs or 2lbs including xmas eve.

    Yes. My usual weigh in day is a Thursday and that was Boxing Day this year.
    No.
    Gained.....too much. A couple of kg but as I had spent ages getting them off, it is pretty annoying!

    Even worse, I haven't been enjoying christmas food (no roast, no christmas puddings etc) just been drinking all the christmas wiiiiiine. :/

    yeah, gained 4lbs including xmas eve. :(
    I find I lose it really quick though as its mostly food weight and water retention

    Up 2.6 lbs from the beginning of the week. I overate a ton, but even still, I imagine no more than 1lb of that is real weight. Lots of water today :)

    I did. I didn't count calories yesterday just cause I forgot but I didn't eat a lot more than usual yesterday.

    Still I was down a pound this morning

    I weighed just to check out what the verdict was. I'm sure it's mostly, if not all, water weight, but the scale said I was up about 2 pounds. Lots of water and being good for the next few days, but it was worth it.

    Yep. Didn't gain anything. I think Didn't count calories, just portion control, it worked :-)

    Decided to only bring home enough leftovers for my husband and I to have one meal the next day, and no dessert. I think it helped.

    yep. I'm down 5 lbs from Monday. I wouldn't recommend how I lost it, though. Nasty stomach virus.

    I had this yesterday. I'm down 3.2 this week.

    Yep, it has been going around. I hope you are feeling better. I've got the cold that's been going around. Ick!

    That's what the ER nurse said as she was hooking up IV fluids to me on Tuesday. She said they had seen a lot of that virus lately and it seemed to be worse on adults than on kids. Hope both of y'all are feeling better :smile:

    I did, but I had to because I just joined MFP today. I gained .4 pounds since I weighed in a week ago. Not bad at all considering. I didn't think you were weird for weighing yourself today. I would just call it curious.

    Weighed in, down half a pound and 0.6% BF from Christmas Day. Weighed in for curiosity after using the bathroom an hour later; down another half pound. The Christmas Day weigh-in was unusually high; guess I needed to eat more veggies. :embarassed:
