Retaining water

I can't figure out why all of a sudden in 2 days I put on 10 lbs!

I just noticed tonight that my ankles are swollen and my legs (Calves) are also harder than usual. I am not eating salty foods. My usual day consists of protein drink in morning, string cheese and usually at mid morning some more string cheese, then a salad or soup for lunch and in the evening I've been having oatmeal to warm me up. I've even made my own pizza's on wheat totilla.

I've been having headaches too for last week. This is really strange.

It is time to go see you primary care doctor.  Something is going on.  Go get it checked out.
I have maintained for one year at this point.  I am steady at -120 pounds.  =)

Yeah, my mom just told me the same thing, need to see dr. They closed urgent care early this evening because of nasty weather. It should be better tomorrow so will go after work and get it checked out.

That's a lot of water retention-I'm glad you are getting it checked tomorrow.

Well still not sure why I was retaining water, waiting on lab results.

But the water pills are working, lost 12 lbs in 3 days! Had a little swelling in right leg, but nothing like before.

Whoo hoo for me, on my way to normal again.
