    I decided to stop gaining weight this winter, but I've been steadily gaining weight for the last 18 years.

    I gained 7 lbs and lost it 3 times, I am up again 7 lbs,here I go again. It was so cold, stayed in a lot, Dad died, went back to bad habits then got control, hopeing I can walk these late summer nights and get it off again.

    I actually did really well over the winter and lost weight over the holidays because I was SUPER vigilant. Unfortunately March showed up with 3 big birthday parties and of course Easter the next weekend and I gained 6 pounds. I gave 2 of them to water weight and sure enough I lost 3 1/2 pounds the next week. So 2 1/2 to go to get rid of party weight

    35 pounds. Do I win?

    I gained about the same. I'm waiting for Monday to roll around to see if I get my period. Hopefully if I'm pregnant at least I'll have a reason why I'm gaining?!

    I gained 10 but was purposely bulking. I've lost 6, so just a few more pounds.

    I gained about 7 lbs, but I also had a foot surgery that left me on bed rest for 3 weeks and crutches for 3 more. Wasn't approved for exercise until 4/1. I feel like 7 lbs isn't too bad lol.

    10 lbs, wasn't planning on it but between SAD and stress I'm surprised a bit it isn't more. Thankfully my cardio and lifting both have stayed stellar so to show for it I still fit all my new wardrobe I bought in fall as well as love my new butt :P, I do want to cut now and really aim to lose it again to be back at goal but just goes to show, weight isn't everything.

    High five :P
    I know I don't have an excuse for gaining :P the first ~10 pounds were intentional but after that... sigh. Five down, 20 to go.

    I gained about 20 pounds. I was a hermit all winter and ordered fast food and takeout 2-4 times a week. That was up until February when I decided to start losing weight.

    Well I was around 28 lbs lost around early Dec but then my Mom died and I ate my feelings under a blanket all winter. I gained 18 lbs back. I'm feeling more okay these days, and trying to star back on MFP daily.

    I think I'm actually down one pound or two, but I can't tell for sure until my period actually shows up and that water weight goes away...
