Background: So upstate NY today was 91 degrees, humid, but no overbearing.
So any other day i weigh between 137 and 140. I get on the scale today midday today, which im sure attributed some, but the scale read approx 142-143.
I wonder, could this be because of the humidty and the weather? I was and have been steady drinking water all throughout the day. At the time that i weighed myself i was done my second bottle of water, and it was about an hour after i had laid in the sun for an hour.
What do you guys think?

Generally, your body stores less during the hot and humid months (I lived in PA and now VA, so I know all about the heat and humidity). But also keep in mind, your body goes through cycles; even more so with woman. And if you had a few bad diet days, your weight could easily go up and within a day or two it can drop down. Happens to me everytime I have a golf weekend (those damn hotdogs,... i just love 'em) but by the middle of the week, it's back to normal.
ps - if you are going to weigh yourself, don't do it after you drink a bottle of water, do it when you wake up. The water alone can add the weight.0
