Got back from vacation yesterday. This morning's weigh in I found out I gained almost 11 lbs. I know I had a lot of carbs and didn't eat the best this past week but that is a pretty hefty gain. I'm not gonna worry about it though. I've started back on a low carb diet, back under 50g of net carbs per day.
I had a fun time visiting with my wife's family. We ate in Amish country one day. I had a big slab of meatloaf and couldn't eat all of it. We also had a family taco night with homemade tortillas followed by peanut butter pie. Not healthy but a good break from calorie counting and eating healthy. Now it's back to reality.
I also worked out today. Had my usual warm-up, weights and intervals. I worked out shoulders and arms. Also did my hamstring curl set. It's great to get back to working out again. Tomorrow morning is leg day.
I hope everyone has a great day!

So glad you are home safely and back to the gym right away! You will knock back the pounds easily when back to the usual routine!

No worries and likely no WAY that's an 'actual' gain . . . your family taco night sounded both fun and yummy! ENJOYING life is part of a healthy lifestyle change -- including the occasional piece of peanut butter pie! I admire your gym-rattedness!!

I bet you're better off than you think. 3500 calories per pound of fat, so 38,500 calories on top of what you use daily to gain 11 pounds. More than likely you've retained fluids from either excess salt or similar. It will drop really quickly!!

It's great to take a break, sometimes we need to, glad you enjoyed it. Mostly water gain you can drop pretty quickly, just hop back on the wagon. :)

At least some of it MUST be water, and you'll lose that very quickly. Anyway, it sounds like you had a great vacation, and are now back on track :)

It's not about dieting, it's about learning a new lifestyle. So you went on vacation and had a great time ... YAY! Now you get back on the wagon like a new day! You'll be fine and you have lots of support.
