Now, there is NO WAY I have put on 7 pounds in 5 days. Mathematically impossible. Oh wait, m-a-t-h….that explains it. How the **&^ can it make sense if math is involved?
Back from my tres expensive but very fun Chicago weekend. Shopping as entertainment. Love it. Until the credit card bills arrive, but hey, like any good neighbour I felt I had to help out the US economy. Remember that when the tables are turned, my American friends. You can stay at my house if you’d like…there’s a mall nearby.
Came home with a car load of shoes, clothes and makeup. I drove all the way around Lake Michigan, which is a long trip but I really enjoyed the scenery and the chance to think. Just quietly think, all by myself. I had some great meals, listened to some good music, and walked the Magnificent Mile several times. I am going to start planning my next trip, which will be somewhere with a beach, sometime in the winter…sometime after the credit card bills….

Sounds like fun - and you’re right, no way you could gain 7 real lbs in one week. Water retention or heavy clothing or the floor under the scale is not level.
A trip to the beach sounds divine….

I never thought about the floor - excellent! All this time I have been blaming the scale….Thanks Ruby Jean!

Yeah Ruby is right. That is why I put my scale on the same exact spot and weigh myself naked. LOL Soory maybe a little too much info. It could be water retention as well from salty foods? You will get it off on no time.
Take care
