weight gain?!

Hi-

I am in need of some support/ advice.

I run and practice bikram yoga. I am eating 1200 calories, plus most of my exercise calories. I had lost 5 pounds over the last 21 days, but then, this week, my scale said I gained back 3 pounds. I am only weighing myself once a week. I have not gone over my calories, and not exercised any less this week. I am feeling super bummed about this- and am wondering if this could be water weight gain (I am close to my period...) or other ideas why I have gained weight back. I am feeling so bummed out, as I have been working really hard at both exercise and diet. Also, ideas to get back on track would be helpful, too.

Thanks in advance!

    Probably just natural fluctuations, put it out of your mind,

    Spot on. Don't stress about it, keep up the good work and things will balance out in their own time.
