Day 30 and I have a cold

Today is my last day.  I'm so excited that I made it the whole 30 days.  If you knew me you would know this is an absolute miracle!  I don't want to weigh and measure right now because I feel like I've gained weight over the last two days!  I haven't done anything differently, other than eat a little less because I have a cold.  Two days ago I was feeling good and light and my clothes were really loose.  Today and yesterday my clothes feel tighter and I just feel big.  I don't know why!  Can a cold do that?  Should I wait a couple of days before I weigh and measure and start reintroduction?

You can totally wait and in fact if you are fighting a cold I would say that eating whole foods MINUS the inflammatory things (grains, dairy, alcohol, sugar) is your best bet anyway.  Reintro can be hard on your body, depending on your sensitivities, and there's no sense working on the cold and then throwing something troubling in there for your system to deal with.

 

As far as weighing and measuring......consider not weighing or measuring yourself and simply know that your clothes are looser and you feel awesome. ;)  The human body is a dynamic and fluctuating machine and it is fully possible that right now, while you're under the weather, that your body is prioritizing healing over anything else. It's possible that for those healing functions your body needs to hold onto more fluids.  It's possible that this is just an "up" in the "ups and downs" of life.
