    Zero. I dialed up to maintenance calories for Christmas week. And surprisingly, it worked. My goal was not to gain over the holidays.

    Now back to losing.

    I stepped on the scale this morning and was 251, which means I lost a few pounds over Christmas.

    10 lbs, but at least half of that is water.

    I took November and December off and gained 6 lbs, but in my defense I had my jaw wired shut for the month of October. I was starving that month so once I was unwired, it was on. lol. Luckily I only gained back what I lost while my jaw was wired.

    Lost 4.6 lbs in the past 9 days, since my last weigh-in. I don't get it... I ate a lot of food and chocolate and drank alcohol, for 3 or 4 days, during this period! Anyway, got to be happy with that, so I'm not complaining :p

    Almost 6 ugh. But I dropped .8 already, hoping to have gained no more than 1 pound (that is not water weight).

    I'm up about 3 pounds.. but I also strength trained yesterday, so that may be playing a part in it!

    Water it is today!

    do you gain weight after strength training?

    Generally yes because you're muscles are holding on to water as they repair themselves.

    "A pound," but I always weighed myself during the three days of the month when I'm usually 3-4 pounds heavier... so I'm thinking I actually lost? I'll know for sure in a week!

    I actually lost a lb. Probably lost muscle because I ate a lot of crap.

    I lived on a steady diet of chocolate and cookies. . .
    All that junk left me feeling so gross!
    My Daughter-in-law is taking all the blame and responsibility for my gaining 8 lbs. She completed a class learning how to bake wonderful cakes and cookies and sweets. How could I support her trying to reach her goals of becoming a chef without sacrificing my own goals for a few weeks? I am such a good MotherIL......8 lbs heavier, that was a lot of support..

    Took my hands off the wheel...ate/drank too much. 3 lbs on top of my high weight. Yup back in the fat pants, that were too big. Self inflicted..I made the choice. Back on track to a healthier more fit me.

    Nothing! I would have had to eat hell of a lot of calories to put on any weight, and even I can't do that!
