    The effects that go along with Starvation Mode are myths - you body doesn't store or hold onto more fat. You don't stop losing weight, it doesn't start if you skip a meal, or have a day eating too little.
    It's why so many say that mode doesn't exist.
    The mode does - more accurately called Adaptive Thermogenesis - the claimed myths do not though.

    Because water gain/loss obviously doesn't follow those averages regarding excess/short calories - they have no calories.
    And your body will gain/drop water for all kinds of reasons.

    Why gaining weight the past year - because you are simply eating more than you burn.

    If it was short term fast loss or gain - water weight reasons.

    Plus you have a literal change of BMR during the month, therefore TDEE, and water retention changes anyway.
