AHHHHH!

Ok so I did something stupid before. I got on the scale after eaten too much junk this weekend and having just gotten my period. I am up almost 3 pounds! Can someone help me to stop hyperventilating and tell me it's just water weight or something? I don't think I ate enough to gain this much. I usually only weigh myself in the morning on an empty stomach. Now I know why it's a bad idea to get on the scale in the evening after having eaten 3 meals while you have your period.

Relax woman, you should know better than to freak out about this.

Did you eat more than 10,000 OVER MAINTENANCE? If not, then yeah, it's water and will go away.

I know I know. I really should know better than to weigh myself like I did and then complain about it. But I guess I needed some reassurance. Thanks for talking me off the ledge! I sure hope I didn't eat 10k over maintenance!
