Or maybe it's a good thing I did. Ugh. Realized this morning I've gained 6 LBS in the past 2 weeks. No wonder all my jeans have been feeling so tight 
I've been eating whatever I want and it's definitely taking a toll on me. Back to clean eating.
Misery loves company. Please let me know I'm not the only one who gained weight when the holiday season has only just begun

You would have literally had to eat 21,000 additional calories to gain six actual pounds. I doubt you did that in two weeks ;).
It's probably most water weight. Just back to your regular diet and you'll be fine

@hotchildinthecity: I hope I didn't eat that many calories!!! Although, I did use three Paula Deen recipes... must have gone through a Costco-sized pack of butter. 
PS - hope you enjoyed Thanksgiving w/your son!!

Have you had lots of sugar/ refined carbs/alcohol? I know when I do after I've been eating healthy my weight skyrockets like that. If i stop again it goes back to normal in about a week. For some reason sugar really affects me. Such a bummer!

You are not alone! It's been a stressful month in our household and I didn't focus on eating healthy or exercising, and all my pants are harder to button :(. Back to working out today!

@Mrs. Lion: lots of sugar I have a feeling that's what it is - I typically eat healthy but the last couple wks I've eaten whatever I wanted. I'm going back to good habits today. Hopefully this is just a fluke and not permanent

I'll be your company. Alcohol has been my down fall. I'm super sick with a chest cold/flu so I'm using this as my chance to kick the drinking.

I didn't gain due to the holiday season but I'm coming out of a first trimester that totally ruined my (and LOs) good eating habits. I hope the scale check in will motivate both of us to get back on track.

Hugs! Nothing is ever permanent! I have gained a lot more than I would like during this pregnancy and I know that's why for me. I really need to get back my good habits before I have a newborn in the house. For some reason all my go to snacks lately have been full of sugar. I need to brainstorm some new ideas I think! I am starving all the time and I can never think of anything good for me to eat.

@Mrs. Lion: maybe we should start a snack yhread! I really think it's the time of year. Pregnant or not, once the weather changes I suddenly only like crap food, regardless of how good my habits are otherwise. It's a constant struggle.
