Yup, very usual ... especially if you have had other weeks
in which you expected a gain but showed a loss. Many of us
noticed along our journeys that gains and/or losses can take
a few weeks to actually show on the scale. So this gain
could possibly be from splurges awhile back. It's a tricky
thing and sometimes lures us into a false sense of security,
then Mr. Evil (the scale) slaps us upside the head and
brings us back to reality. Just jump right back on track at
the first opportunity and that slight increase will drop
quickly. Good luck!

Been on the program since Mid Feb and had been losing a
total of 12 lbs last week. This week however I gained .6 -
a first time for a gain for me. Is this usual? I did have
my daughter's shower in there and some other things;
however, I have thought I gained before and always lost.

Thanks Faye

hey - you be totally normal 🙂
and i bet with the shower and other things that although you may have been
within points, you ate different stuff to normal - which could mean maybe
more salt and thus water retention?
anyway - here's hoping it's gone again (+more) next week - it all averages
out in the long run 🙂

My trip to goal was a series of losses then a gain or two before
losing again, I think the body sometimes just needs time to catch up

yes it is normal sometimes hidden salt, or miscalculated points. Could even
be your body is taking a time out to readjust. I am sorry as this is always
so hard, good luck this week, Lee

Hi, Faye, An occassional small gain is typical. You are doing great. The
way you handle this will show how you will handle the program.
Take Care
