Three days by the pool = three pounds :-(

I spent an amazing long weekend by the pool (Canada Day on Friday) and had an amazingly relaxing time. Unfortunately I totally slacked on my water intake , hopped on the scale this morning and I’ve gained THREE POUNDS!

Now I know it should be gone in a few days but WOW three days in the sun with little to no water = 3 pounds??

Next weekend remind me to pack my water bottle!

    Water weight can be quite scary sometimes! Also, if you got sunburns, your skin will retain extra water to heal.
