  • how frustrating!!! lying cheating scale

    Friday I was 172.5. I had food poisoning over the weekend so nothing staying in my body food wise. Yep I had 7up, saltines and a little glucose ( I didn't really want these but my BG wouldn't stay above 50). You'd think you would be down or the same in weight right? I mean nothing stayed in for 2 days.

    UP 5 POUNDS!!!!! today. I knew my rings sure got tight suddenly!!
    Yesterday was my first real food day since friday. I'm guessing I was so dehydrated after the weekendthat my body is holding onto every drop of moisture. Blah!!!!!

    Yep it's water for sure .. it pretty normal after an illness for your body to react and hold onto it's fluids ... give it a day or two for your bodt to recover from the shock of it al and the woosh you'll be right back down!!!!!!

        Yes, it is true. Our body holds onto the water when we are ill. It happens to me all the time, but as mary pointed out....Whoosh fairy will soon relieve you of the excess water. So, drink up and so happy you're feeling better.

            Shoot that lying, cheating scale!
