Maybe alot of it is water weight? Stay away from salty foods for a few days and drink plenty of water.

Chloe, don't be depressed! It happens to the best of us. you can loose at least a few of those pounds before the e-party if you are diligent.

get to the gym, eat lots of fruits and veggies..go easy on fats and salts...drink plenty of water!!

YOU CAN DO IT!

I know how you feel I have been trying to loose a few pounds but the scale hasn't budged my clothes feel tighter on me but I don't know whats going on. Lately it seems so hard to shed the pounds.

You can do it though. Try drinking more water and staying away from salt. I am sure you know all this.

Drink water and NO alcohol. Youll be amazed at what that can do.
I workout 4-5x a week and the past 2 wks Ive only made it there 2-3x and I feel like @ss about it. And now i have a sinus/ear infection and Im missing the gym again. Life goes on. Just buckle down now that you know

Oh, don't worry! You can work that off. Also, if you want to try to get that off by your e-party, you could try phase one of the south beach diet. No dairy, fruit, or carbs (and alcohol I think) for the first two weeks, and usually you lose 6-12 lbs. While it is largely water weight, you still see a difference.
