    While you were sick your body retains fluid as a protection against dehydration.

    Water weight, if you haven’t been able to hold anything down your probably dehydrated and your body's holding onto everything it can right now. Drink tons of water, maybe some hot lemon water and you should see a drop in a couple days!
