Oh No!!!
 

I have gained......GAINED 4 lbs:mad:. What am I gonna do? how did I do this?:( I am totally freaking right now. It must be getting close to my time of the month.:?: Any suggestions? I just can not believe this has happened. Maybe I should check the batteries in my scale.........:shrug: help?!?!?!?

STOP. BREATHE.

This is NOT the end of the world, and it does not have to be the end of your efforts! :hug: Drink lots of water today, and remind yourself that the scale is a fickle measure of success - truly. Unless you really know you ate 14000 extra calories, you can count on this being any number of things... and I certainly know my scale has a good laugh at me around my time of the month.

Get back on track, stop panicking, and keep going. THAT is success. :) I promise.

Heather :D

thanks Heather, for your encouragement I really appreciate it..

Shelbysmom, you are not alone, I too have gained, I am 53 and can not put my gain down to that time of month:(
Mine, I'm afraid, is just because I got off track, have not been gong to gym and quite frankly don't know how much I have put on I just know that I have. Too darned scared to hop on any scales:genie: If I could ask this genie for anything today it would be for a good hard kick in the :censored:
Hang in there as Heather says and just keep going.

So Thanks Heather, I will take your advice too.
Penlty of water, and tracking daily food.
