    How long is the time frame in which you've been gaining? Open your diary?

    I'm sure you can come up with a list of why you may have gained. But the main thing is to STOP PANICING, YOUR LEGS WILL NOT FALL OFF YOU WILL NOT DIE. Tomorrow is another day think about why and take a big breath relax and say I will be fine and start again. Its not easy but you will get there :)

    If you let people see your diary they'll be able to give you some pointers. But weight isn't just made up of fat, there is a load of water as well and that can cause massive fluctuations in the scales depending on all kinds of things! DON"T obsess over a number, it's a waste of time!

    Exercise will make your muscles strengthen and that will add pounds but it shedds inches and if you can tell your clothes fit better you are on the right track, Once the muscles are toned the weight comes off too.

    You seem to be eating only 600-800 cals per day....Or your not compleing your daily logs.
    Perhaps you need to increase your calories or log more accurately to get a better picture of where you may be going wrong.
