I took Saturday night off and all Sunday off my diet. I didn't do any exercise from 5 PM on till Monday morning, and I ate whatever I wanted, didn't calculate it or anything, just ate. I go to the scale on Monday and had gained 6 pounds.

I am now recommitted to following the diet

    When did you get on the scale? It is unlikely you gained 6 lbs in one day. Weigh in the morning and be sure to eat a high fiber meal to um unclog the shoot :laugh: You are probably retaining fluid especially if the food was high sodium content. One day is nothing to panic over. Good luck!

    I feel your pain! I have had the same problem before.... taken one or two days off and gained 3,4 or 5 pounds. While I know it was most likely water weight or being "clogged", I agree with you... it is a real eye opener. Even if you know those 6 pounds aren't 6 pounds of fat, it still hurts to see that scale number go up. I guess we all need a kick in the butt everyonce in while! LOL.

    But I bet it felt good to take some time off and just be able to relax and eat what you want! :happy: And now you can be more committed and focused on your healthy eating and exercise.

    Now take the momentum and go with it! Good luck!

    I way overeate yesterday, and there is no way that I'm getting a the scale until Friday morning. :drinker: to the holiday being over. BTY, I gave the rest of the cake I made to my sister in law. The kids chocolates I can handle, not cake ( especially cake with cream cheese frosting):bigsmile:
