Cheryl - I haven't taken a long car trip since I've been weighing regularly but I always get stiff and sore sitting in a car for a long time, so I wouldn't be at all surprised if some water retention was involved. Try to get in some extra water today and help get rid of it!
Holy crapola. I'm far behind. That's what I get for not logging on all weekend. I didn't weigh either. I was bad. Damn Easter weekend! Lol. I decided to do one day of OP eating and then weigh in tomorrow. I don't think I'll have made a difference from my ticker weight, but hopefully? We'll see. I know right now it's not a good number, I feel it. I see other people did pretty well though (didn't have time to read the 3 pages I missed!!)
Mom23, Why do you use the high number? LOL! The after shower weight was probably because you were still wet, or sometimes I think gravity sets in. I'd take the lower number, definitely. I always weigh more after a shower too. My hair holds onto quite a bit of water!
Angihas2 - what pain meds are you taking? I thiknk mine are making me retain, too. I started taking them a few weeks ago, and I feel like my body is just holding on to what I drink.
MomtoThree - what? Take the lower number, woman! The aftger shower weight includes water that hasn't evaporated yet. It's like drinking a big glass of water before hopping on the scale! Congrats on the second 10% and and 25 lbs!
I'm up to 238.6 today (up 1.2 from yesterday) but I was totally expecting it. I didn't eat poorly yeasterday (though I didn't track the calories), but there was a lot of salt in the food and I didnt' drink nearly as much water as I'm used to. Also? I'm pretty sure Aunt Flo is coming for a visit any time now. I'm not worried about it. I expect to be back down a bit tomorrow.
I went to a new GP today for a regular physical. He was proclaimed me healthy. His scale read a lb less than mine, how often does that happen?
I put up a new profile picture if anyone is interested. Me dressed up for church yesterday. Its been several years since I last wore a skirt, NSV for me. Ignore the funny look on my face, and I'm not wearing my glasses.
