Gaining too much weight

Jessica

I had a routine appointment today and when the nurse weighed me the scale showed I had gained about 8 pounds since my last appointment when I should only be gaining about 2-3 pounds in a month. I don't feel like I have gained much weight at all. Is anyone else gaining too much weight and how do you deal with not giving into cravings? I think I've been having too many sweet drinks like cherry Coke and orange juice.
