    Mexican food (or anything salty!) will do that to me temporarily. As will my cycle! Give it a couple of days and see if it goes away.

    You weight fluctuates up to 5 pounds a day. That is normal. Either sodium or hormones can cause your body to retain a little extra water. So, you may not have gained weight. It could just be your body is in the process of getting rid of some of the extra water.

    If you stuck to your eating and exercise plan, then keep with it. Just weigh again next time and hopefully you will see the lower number you are looking for. Don't get discouraged by one weigh in. Some weeks, I just don't lose a thing, but I keep with it and the weight has been coming off. Good luck to you.
