    So can I log my weight at 138.5 do you think? Or should I leave it at 143? Obviously I really want to change it, but I don't want lots of 'well dones' if it's incorrect because I'll feel like a fraud... don't want to let my friends down :-)

    <shrug> your weight is 138.5 so log it as 138.5 imo. Doesn't make you a fraud. Up to you though, personal preference whether or not you log it of course.

    It's so easy to get caught up in the numbers.... If you haven't already, invest in a good body composition scale that shows you more data.

    Could be your scale. Could be a 'whoosh' (see link a couple of posts back). Muscles tend to retain glycogen/water when you're working out, and when you stop for a short time it gets released.

    So basically it's either scale or water.

    This.
