I was a bit stuck for a few weeks. I would lose a few then gain a couple, just sorta stuck. Well i had the stomache flu on Sunday and lost 6 pounds in the process. My question is does any one know if any of that lost weight stay off? Or should i expect to gain it all back?

    I wouldn't be surprised if you gain some back once you are well hydrated. But maybe not all. I'm glad you are feeling better!:flowerforyou:

    You will probably gain back at least 1/2. Drink lots of fluid and stick to plan...hope you feel better, that flu is going around!!!

    Sorry to say you were probably dehidrated and you will probably gain most of it back:frown:

    Another big loser on here, Skinny Dreams, had the flu once, and lost 8 lbs that week, and only gained back 6lbs, for a net loss of 2lbs.

    I hope you have a similar situation - probably a loss of fluids and hopefully a little body fat!
