Awww man! I went on a birthday weekend free-for-all and gained back 10 pounds... :( OMG! I am really disappointed with the weight gain, but I did it to myself.. Back on the wagon for sure.

    Water, water, water gain...there's no way you could do 10 lbs of fat damage to yourself in one weekend. Back on plan and push the water intake to flush out what your holding on to. You'll be back to normal by the end of the week, I'm sure. :-)

    Ok, so I had gained 11.4 pounds of water weight! That was some birthday week celebration! It's really hard to kick the sugar craving after you've already done it once before. Sigh.. :)

    Anyway, today, I am down 8.6 pounds after fighting the cravings all weekend and staying on plan (well except last night, was too hungry when we finally had dinner so I caved and ate tortilla chips).. Woot! No more sugar cravings and feeling ready to tackle the rest of the water weight and beyond!
