I was slowly losing but wasn't gaining at all.  Now that I have been trying to get everything in, I gained 6# in a week!  Just letting you know because my ticker went from 67 to go to 73 to go :(

It's not as simple as PMS either...

Hi Jimi,
I know exactly how you feel.... It's not easy posting a weight gain.
Our bodies do fluctuate with things like PMS or exercise or stress. I was a little out of control over the holidays. But they are over and so am I...

could be water retention
could be muscle mas build from exercise
you could have gotten some hidden salt
you might be storing a BM
You may have weighed in before your body emptied fluids.
Your scale might be on the fritz

6lbs in a week sounds like water retention! I had the same problem with it! it is very hard to gain 6 lbs in a week unless you are eatting non stop! just up your water intake and wait a few days. I should go away. I drank about 4 more glasses of water a day. If it does not get better, then you should talk to your surgeon. You could be backed up too, and the water will help that move too

Thanks everyone.  I was very upset but it appears it's probably water retention.  I went from drinking all diet soda to all water and crystal light.  Then I gained weight.  Must be why!  Thanks again.
