Weight Gain 12 days out?

I jumped on the scale yesterday morning and it said 226.6, and now this morning it's saying 229.9! I was completely shocked and frustrated! I have no idea why Or how I could gain 3.3lbs overnight but I am not happy! I even went to the gym yesterday and did 30 minutes on the treadmill (Dr Approved Treadmill only). Has anyone else experienced this? I know that my weight is going to fluctuate, but 3.3 lbs really? I can deal with 1-2lbs but not almost 4!

It is water weight. Your body is still healing and adjusting. Perhaps it is protecting itself a little due to the workout. Keep following your plan.

Thanks! That makes me feel a little better! I was up to 18lbs and wanted to hit 20lbs before my 2 week appt, but now im set back to 15lbs!

It will go away in a day or two once your body realizes it doesn't need it. My body is the queen of water retention. Try drinking more water then you normally do and see if that helps.

Okay thank you!

You shouldn't be weighing yourself everyday, that is extremely unhealthy. Try once a week at the same time to truly track your progress, or go by how your clothes fit.
