DAMN YOU PICKLES! YEAH MsLEE, I'M TALKN' TO YOU.
How cruel MsSalty Pickel! You could have said something! You should have told me! People its a pickle conspiracy I tell you. Its true, they are watching. And, they are plotting against us.
I went from 162, about a 12 lb gain after my meds back down to 149.6. Finally less than ten pounds from my low weight. Mostly because I skipped a major round of meds I admit.
Then... the EVIL PICKLES struck! Why was I never warned? Today I hit 152 lbs up 2.4 overnight while still working my @$$ off. Well I was on another site and someone was cursing pickels. Apparently the sodium in the brine equals overnight weight gain.
I've been eating them damned pickle chips for two days and they are so good and virtually calorie free. Beware, low cal does not mean scale friendly.
Damn MsLee, you coulda said sumthin' .

LV'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
I have rediscovered a yummy treat that has very few calories or carbs.
Slice up fresh cucumbers, put them in white vinegar (or balsamic) and season to taste.
Put it in the fridge overnight and it soaks in even more flavor. The vinegar has only 2-3 calories and no sodium.

While I had the pickles at mid day, being the IGNORAMOUS that I am, I HAD NO CLUE THAT PICKLES WERE HIGH IN SALT & SODIUM.
I'd always thought the tart flavor was from vinegar. Thankfully I got some extra water in or it would have been worse. The scale continues to rise. All I can say about myself is YOU DUMB ASS!
