Yesterday I gained 3.3lbs bring my weight loss to 10.5lbs. I was expecting to gain weight but not that much. I've read that it takes 3,500 calories to gain or lose a pound, if that's true then I would of had to of consumed over 12,000 calories yesterday. That didn't happen. Most likely I had a reaction to one of the foods I had for dinner. No worries, I'll lose the weight I gained by Wednesday.
