Are you eating back your exercise calories? If you work out 6x a week then 1310 seems quite low, I'm on 1200 a day but on exercise days I eat a few hundred extra.

and that for sure is it as i always keep inside my calorie goal, and i only eat back some of the calories i burn like 200 maybe??? i eat less than 2000, its just the first time its happened and im worried.

Weight can fluctuate a lot with water and exercise. I wouldn't be weighing yourself every two days. I would weigh youself once a week MAX. You may also need more calories per day.

Doesn't mean a thing. Very normal fluctuation. Give it a week and the gain will be gone. I have done the same thing many, many times. I have gained four pounds just from exercise and eating breakfast. Just keep moving in a positive direction of eating right and exercising and you will be fine in the long term.:flowerforyou:

Water weight. Just eating salty foods, heat, TOM and many other things can make you gain, and sometimes it might be 4lbs, sometimes 2lbs and sometimes 6 or more.

It's not fat, so don't worry. Weight fluctuates.
