Weight Fluctuation?

I just recently lost 8lbs, and weighed in at 205.4lbs, but now, after not recording my intake for about 2 days, my weight has increased to about 208.8lbs, and I was wondering, is it possible to gain 3lbs so quickly? I mean, I haven't been eating the best this week, but I certainly haven't been going over my limit. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I not worry as much, because weight tends to fluctuate?

i can easily gain 3 lbs in a couple days.....and not recording intake means you don't actually know if you are going over your limit....just a thought. And of course weight does fluctuate, if you are eating worse, probably more sodium so more water weight, etc...just my thoughts...0

Eating foods with excess sodium and not drinking enough water can definitely lead to a water retention - water weight gain. Consistency works - stick with it!!!0

I go up or down <2 lbs or so each day. It is water weight but to be honest its pretty natural. I wouldnt worry about 1-3 pounds however if you suddenly gain like 5 pound i would start re-evaluate how you are eating and excercising.0

No way. Weight should remain at a steady decline no matter what. It's absolute. Dictated by gravity and a device that calculates such a number based on the atomic weight of visceral tissue comprised of semi-permeable cells. Aqueous fluid has no place in dictating weight loss. It's the bible of science.
