My weigh in surprise!

So I weighed myself 8 days ago at the gym on a very reliable scale, the one with the sliders and exact weight measurements. I weighed in at 223. Today I weighed myself and to my surprise I weighed in at 216 pounds! To make sure I was right I took my time and double checked. It appears I have lost seven pounds. Two questions. Is it mostly just water fat since I am drinking 3.5 liters of water a day? And I don't see any difference and I am sure I would notice seven pounds Just wondering why I don't see any change? Thank you!

I notice more when I measure myself. It keeps me motivated if the scale doesn't seem to move.0

It'll show up. Be patient. I'm one that doesn't show a weight gain or loss for 20 pounds0

I feel the change in my clothes more than I see on the scale.
Keep up the awesome job!0 -
