I took two months off to lose weight. I mainly ate salads (with no dressing, mind you), lean protein and generally followed SB with no straying (except for Christmas and NYE). I exercise every day for half an hour and I do not starve myself. I drink plenty of water daily. I am gaining weight. There's no way that this is muscle gain or starvation mode gain. WTF is wrong with me? I am so beyond frustrated with my body.

Not sure what to do now. Sad and lost.
Ugh, I'm so sorry. I don't think there's anything wrong with you at all -- sometimes our bodies just don't respond like they should. I'd recommend changing up what you're eating. Maybe try different types of veggies or different complex carbs than what you've been eating. I'm certainly no expert, but that's worked for me in the past.
I applaud you for sticking with your diet and exercise that long. I've been "thinking" about losing weight since my BFN in Nov and haven't done anything except gain an extra 10 pounds. :-(

Thanks,sweetie. Don't feel bad though, I think sometimes we just have to enjoy life.
Maybe I should do that too. I think I've tried everything else out there.
