    Increased water weight is pretty common with anything that requires healing, especially if there's swelling involved. Not fat, so don't worry about it.

    Thank you! I took a spill on my bicycle and thought I had broken my hand. It swelled up like a dead bulldog. Xray showed no break. Been icing but it's still swollen and for two days now I have added a little weight on the scale. No big deal but I wondered if this was the culpret since I still exercised and kept on my daily cal goals. Looks like it could be from what y'all are telling me.
