i gained 3 pounnnnds!?!

that's normal, your body fluctuates by 2 pounds in the course of a day (for example you could be 120 in the morning and 122 when the day ends). if you're measuring your weight daily (or whatever), i suggest weighing yourself at the same time.

Most of the books I’ve read and diets I have studied have been appalling. Horrible when someone is depriving themselves and having such a hard time with a protocol and you know they are only setting themselves up for failure. I must say, of all the programs I have read, Diet Solution is by far and away the best, most complete, most balanced, most natural and most sustainable. I employ essentially the same principals when working with my own clients – whether their goal is weightloss, disease prevention or disease recovery. Great book, great tips, great recipes, and great information,This program is for people who are serious about permanent weight loss. For more information visit their site.

You should only weigh yourself in the morning. When you weigh yourself latter on in the day it in inaccurate because you've eaten and such..

Don't worry. During the day, your weight can change by about 2lbs, and during your time of the month, it can discrepant by up to 6lbs.

You're retaining water. You're going to be heavier than normal

It could just be the excess water in the body. Don't fret it's normal.
