Did you eat something salty? I believe you are retaining water and that's where the extra weight comes from.
Are you using Fitday or anything similar? There you can also track the amount of sodium you have. For me, if I go above 1500 mg per day (which is VERY easy to do), I gain a few lbs. Darn scale!
__________________ "The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
