in two weeks I've gained three pounds... I've stopped drinking pop, eating candy eating chips. only ate take out a couple times (way less than normal) and I gained... I'm terrified to go to the doctors on Tuesday. maybe it's water weight because my period will start soon? idk what to do. I'm going to try harder these next few days. I guess my scale could be different too. idk I'm nervous lol

It is not uncommon to go up and down a few pounds. Soounds like you are making positive changes. Most likely related to time of the month. Even being constipated will add pounds. The scales will drive you crazy. I used to get angry at my hubby when he moved the scale from the 'skinny' spot on the floor.

I feel you. Before I saw the dietician, I started doing everything I was asked to do: I started snacking (on good things, the things suggested by the Hospital), gave up pop entirely, no coffee, no alcohol... and I gained 10 lbs... We eat steamed veggies and baked meats, no sauces, no added salt, we eat out but not  often (no fast food). My only guess is that the snacking has added calories to my diet... It sucks.

Hope everything goes well at the dr's!

started my period I'm down 4 pounds today? I'm just nervous about going to my appointment and it being higher than last time lol. I don't want to drag the process out longer. I'm not going to get all worked up and weigh everyday so I'll just wait to see what they say at appointment lol
