    You won't have gained 2lb of fat in one day so it's probably just water retention and maybe a tiny bit of weight. just go back to your sensible eating and drinking and it'll come off - don't panic!

    Nothing to worry about yet. Its just water retention. Get focus and get back to business.

    water retention from alcohol and sodium. I weighed 4 pounds more this AM then I did 2 days ago. Back at it today, tons of water!

    Relax. You didn't gain 2 pounds in one day. I ate chinese over the weekend and was up 3 pounds yesterday morning. This morning, after exercising and drinking lots of water yesterday, it's gone. Don't weigh yourself when you feel bloated. Just get lots of water in your system and flush it out.

    if you drink straight lemon juice it really helps with bloating. Saves me!

    You'll be back on track in no time! Great job with your portion control! Long Islands are my favorite! We have to stay away from those!
