I don't know if its just me or not, but when it's hot outside do you retain even more water and then put a extra few pounds on the scale???? :ohwell: I'm asking, because this happened to me.. I don't know if it is because I didn't drink enough/ more water than I should have since its 100 degrees outside. :embarassed: Someone please help me figure this out??

    I certainly didn't lose as much as I normally do. I'm thinking you might be on to something.

    It has to be the water. I drank soo much water over the weekend, and went up two pds. It wasn't the food, I know it was the water. I am working out harder so I can loose the water weight by sweating. It's a catch twenty two. Just hang in there, and keep hydrated.
