Swollen Ankles

Hi There. Hoping someone could give me some insight. I am 5 weeks out, lost a ton up front and have stalled for the past 2.5 weeks and actually gained 5-7 lbs back, but this morning I woke up with very swollen ankles! I'm following the plan and so I'm quite frustrated. I have never had a swelling problem except for once for a few days following my third child. I'm also fairly healthy besides my wight issue. So I'm so curious as to what is happening with my body?! I have a Dr. appt tomorrow, so I will hopefully get some answers then too, but I wondered if this has happened to anyone else?

I used to get the swollen ankles all the time, and the surgery has really helped this to stop. Perhaps you have eaten some high sodium food? I think it is good you have made an appt with the Dr, could be something else too...new meds, or something.... good luck with that, post when you find out!
