A member asked:
I have an ear chest throat infection and flu. and i am eating like one meal a day. so why did i gain 3 lbs over the last week?

Not to worry: Our weight can fluctuate markedly over a few days -often the reason is retained fluids. If this is the cause, the weight will drop back as the fluid diureses.
