Lost 2 kg (4,4 lbs) over weekend!?

edited October 2024 in Health and Weight Loss
When I stepped on my scale Monday I thought it was broken, but then I tried another scale and it was the same <.<
My second thought was that it was water-weight, but now two days later it is still the same.
I hadn't been at a plateau or anything o.O

So what gives?
Have any of you have this happen?

    the week i had my period the scale didn't move...but then after it ended i lost the same amount of weight, 2 kgs...
    so maybe it's because your period ended?

    Woohoo I'm hoping this happens me, I'm coming to the end of my period, and had a weigh in with the nurse the other day and she said the same ... expect to lose at least 2lbs! Fingers crossed! At least there's one good thing about getting them!!! :)

    No, I hadn't had my period, but I SHOULD have had it, but I skipped by starting my new packet of birth-control pills.
    Could have been it, maybe?
