could it be your period? Increased sodium intake? Fluid retention??

Keep a food/water diary for a few days. See if you can figure out a change in your diet that may be causing it. I agree with the previous poster...it is probably fluid retention. INcrease your water!!! Drink Drink Drink!!

hi, Don't dispair! have been there. I had been eating soup for lunch and suddenly gained two pounds. I almost died and went though the whole this surgery isnt working for me panic. When I talked to my nutritionist, she said cut out the soup and eat turkey or high protein instead. Those two pounds were gone in a couple of days and they took 4 of their friends with them. Dont panic and chcek your salt intake:) Tracey
