    Dehydration, and either reduce alcohol cunsumption or accept that weight loss will take longer (if you want to lose weight).

    The effects of alcohol on water retention can take a day or two to kick in sometimes, I tend to find the same. The fact is it's water weight, not fat so it's not really a big deal, just drink plenty of water in the days after you've been out. It can also come down to what you're eating the following day, a lot of people tend to eat a lot of carby/salty food as part of their hangover recovery which can also impact water retention.

    As long as you're accounting for the drinks calories and sticking to your calorie deficit over the week the weight tends to come off a few days later.
