Eat more and lose weight

leejoyce31

I've been maintaining my weight for a while on purpose. I decided to up my calories slowly 2 weeks ago, and now I'm losing. Anyone else experience this? My activity level has not changed.

I'm not concerned. Just curious.

It's just coincidence and water weight. Eating more calories per day without changing your activity level would not cause fat loss so the weight that was lost was something other than fat. This is almost always water.

Happens to me when I jack up carbs, but it's because when I do so, I suddenly can't sit still. The first week of my last bulk, I went from 12,000-ish steps per day, to well over 20,000 without consciously trying.

Thanks. Makes sense to me. I agree it's probably water.
