Weight loss???

How is this possible? I weigh in on my normal day, yesterday and it says 161.4. Then today the scale says 159.4.

How did it dropped 2 pounds? Am I retaining water?

    Likely. My weight will fluctuate by about 3 lbs. I learned that early on and accepted that's the way she goes. I don't think it's anything to worry too much about, although it can be a bit disheartening when it goes back up. It's nice when you weigh in on a low day, but don't always expect it to go down.

    It could be water or waste or both. Weight is more than just fat, muscle and water.

    You typically fluctuate anywhere between 1 to 4 pounds a day. Your body burns fat when your sleeping so I could be water, waste, or your did lost about a pound.

    Weight fluctuates. Welcome to the world of weight loss. After a month, I am finally back down to the weight I was. Just had a massive jump due to hormones and some really high carb days.
