Jho, I typed up a long response about water weight, then the site went down. But the more you drink the more you pee so no water weight. If I intake a lot of sodium and don't flush my system with a gallon of water I'll gain a lot, but if I drink my water, I don't.

I totally fell off goals today/this week with all of family being home for spring break.
At least today I walk/jogged 2.5 miles and did some weights.
On the other hand, I ate a ridiculously huge lunch, and then ate 6 Fannie May truffles...so delicious and enjoyed though, esp the cappucino one. I'm still SOOOoooOO hungry! Not going to log calories, too scared.
Another positive: did three pain-in-the-butt outstanding chores: got passports for kids, opened safe deposit box, mailed off old family cassettes to convert to mp3's.

Jho as mike said wear will just flush itself out of your system. If you were dehydrated or poorly hydrated and drank a lot of water you might show some water gain, but not under normal circumstances. Glad you enjoyed my blog

The first time I actually had time to post and the site went down, I think I'll have to do what Mern does and open a Word document.
1389 calories for the day, room for a small snack if I need it. I hope everyone stays strong for hump day.
