    Keep doing it for a few weeks. Three days is not enough time.. your weight will just fluctuate up/down during the week, but that's normal.

    Impatience is what's going on. :D

    Seriously, you need to give it more time. Continue calorie counting, exercising if you want, and staying in a calorie deficit, and come back in 4-6 weeks and let us know how it's going.

    You didn't gain weight overnight, so you won't lose it in the same amount of time either.

    That was going to be my question too, but you beat me to it.

    When you begin exercising, your body'll retain water; for muscle repair. You'll also retain water, via consuming sodium & menstruation. I don't apply the 4 ~ 6 week logic, to menstruating women; since cycles're typically 28 days (some people consider 4 weeks, to be a month; which varies 1 ~ 3 days depending upon the month).

    Three days?! Patience grasshopper. I doubt you gained the weight in 3 days, it will take more than 3 days to lose it.

    First and foremost, you need to remember that your weight is not going to just drop off of you the minute you want it to. It's only been 3 days!! Lots of things can cause your weight to go up a lb or two. As stated above, new exercise routine, your monthly cycle, too much sodium, etc.

    Also, make sure you log your food correctly. Use a good scale and weigh everything you eat.

    Biggest thing I can recommend though is to give it time. I don't even think I dropped my first few lbs in 3 days.

    I weigh almost 3 lbs more in the night compared to the morning. Patience, grasshopper, patience. You didn't gain all the weight in 3 days. You're not going to lose in 3 days either.

    "there're" is not a word.

    I saw none of the ridicule that you claim. I saw a gentle ribbing a.k.a. humour. If the OP didn't take offence, why should you?

    1st there're a multitude of reasons, why someone becomes overweight, underweight, etc. 2nd much of the time, it involves emotions, low/no self esteem, etc. It's best not to assume, that someone isn't sensitive; especially when seeking help. No 1 should be expected, to have "thick skin" because no 1 should be attempting, to test/puncture it! It's also unrealistic to believe, that because someone doesn't complain, that they aren't offended!

    "there're" is not a word.

    I shorten my words (by combining them), extend my sentences (by using excessive/inappropriate amounts of commas & semicolons), etc.

    Can I ask why? I'd not have asked, but you brought it up.

    Well shortening/combining my words, means that I type/read less. As for the run on sentences, I dislike completing a sentence; in the middle of an explanation of something (if that makes sense). I also dislike overly using commas, so I use semicolons; as commas when not listing things within a sentence.
