How much I put back on in the last 2 days! I was amazed when I got on the scale this morning. I wish it came off that fast. The funny thing was I wasn't massively over my calories and I was still being active. Basically a few days of hanging with friends and eating out 2/3 meals a day. Not a good choice. It spiked my fat intake almost double what it would be if I were eating at home. At any rate I don't feel this is a set back just a little ironic because one of the ways I keep myself motivated is saying I didn't gain over night so it won't fall off over night.... in this case it was pretty much over night. I got back on track today and feel better. :D

    It is amazing how fast a couple of pounds here and there can come back! Super annoying! Getting back on track it should go away within a week! That's what usually happens with me.

    If you ate many of your meals out it could be the salt that is messing with your scale. Give your body a few days, drink lots of water and see if it doesn't level back out to where it was. Just my 2 cents

    I completely agree I can gain 3lbs like in 2 days  but then if I work hard it can come back off in like 3 or 4 days. Yes it's very annoying!!
