Slight Gain

Well, I gained 1 pound. When I weighed this morning I weighed 223.6 lbs.

You might be saying that I'm on the way to gaining my weight back. Well, you would be wrong. You see, this isn't the first time I've seen gains during this diet. I tend not to drink enough water on the weekends and that is one cause. The other is eating out can have it's difficulties. It is of no consequence. During the week I get more water down and eat better. This causes me to lose what I gain on the weekends, plus some.

By the way, I happen to be on my first maintenance phase. My weight is expected to fluctuate some. I'm actually losing a greater amount than normal for being in this phase of the diet. I will soon be starting another round of HCG and will probably drop around 15-20 lbs.

So, if my gain is cause for concern about the diet not working for you, don't worry, it's part of the experience.
