I wouldn't worry about 1 pound. Sometimes my weight fluctuates daily by 3 lbs. My doctor said this is normal. But here are a few things to consider. It could be muscle gain if you are excersing. Are you following your dr's orders for eating? Could it be water retention?

We went to dinner at my favorite restaurant last week. All I had was a cup of hot tea. That did not bother me at all. I just enjoyed being out and socializing.
