Hi, I weigh myself regularly, and I have noticed that when I am a bit naughty with my diet my weight goes up 2 or 3 days later?.. is there anyone who can explain how or why this happens?.. or maybe I'm trippin?

Cheers, Clint

    High carb and/or sodium meals can cause water retention, which will cause your weight to spike temporarily.
