Bad news coming

So things did not improve after Thanksgiving. My last two weigh ins were 191.2 and 191.6, despite lifting the first day and interval training the next, while eating only 1700 calories. This convinces me that I'm retaining water from taking the creatine.

I won't lose any weight this week, unless I miraculously end up under 190 tomorrow morning. I'm hoping the measurements are good, at least.

This is head down, keep pushing mode...

brotherJay don't worry man you are doing great. It is showing in your numbers and if you keep doing what your doing you will get where your going. 1700 cals for thanksgiving is freaking great. You are totally right about your body just holding onto water. Like you said just keep pushing and smash through the next wall.

Your enemy is not weight, your enemy is giving up. As long as you don't do that, you're winning, regardless of what the scale says.

I'll second what Billy said. Just keep moving along. Creatine does cause your muscles to retain water, so that probably explains the weight. Just don't panic, and you'll be ok.
