    Weight loss is never linear. There's weeks you go down and weeks you stay the same or even go up. It happens. To everyone. If you didn't eat about 4200 calories over maintenance, it's not fat.

    ^^This woman took THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH. When you train, your muscles retain a LOT of water as they heal and repair...it's actually a GOOD thing. Take a deep breath and don't worry about it for one more second!!. It is just water...it is meaningless. :flowerforyou:

    I REALLY appreciate all the advice you guys. I seriously burst into tears this morning, but for so many people to have the same opinion there MUST be truth to it. So thank you thank you thank you.

    Good for you girl!! Those tears should be tears of JOY!! You obviously worked your muscles hard and they're retaining water so they can repair and rebuild--giving you some lovely, shapely muscle curves...that's all. :wink:
