    that 4 lbs isn't all fat, so don't worry. there is no way you'd gain 4 lbs of fat over this weekend unless you're eating like 15000 cals + per day. that 4 lbs is probably bloat from increased sodium intake, a little bit of fat, and the actual food in the digestive tract. Just get back on track and check the scale again in a few days when it should be gone.

    I wouldn't weigh everyday. It could drive a girl :mad:

    Water weight fluctuations for some people can vary as much as 10 lbs in one day.
