    16 lbs in a month is quite a lot. There are about a million things that could cause a 3 lb gain, and fat is only one of them. :smile:

    well did you take measurements?
    That would give you a good way to see results alongside of weighing yourself. The bodyweight can fluctuate quite a bit in one single day so the weight is not always acurate so I wouldn`t get to frustrated yet with a 3 lbs gain...
    Are you drinking your H2O...That often helps flush out the excess retention:drinker:

    10-12 glasses of water a day. I'm burning on average 300-600 calories a day and usually not getting close to the calorie limit I have right now (2,030). I just needed some encouragement! Thanks!!

    You're supposed to eat those calories. MFP builds in a deficit for you. Eat more; 4 lbs a week is extremely fast weight loss even for the extremely obese.
