Hi guys,

It seems everytime I go out and drink - I weigh less then next morning. obvoiously I have been exercising and eating less in the day to allow room for wine calories but is it due to dehydration that I weigh less - I was 197.8lbs yesterday morning - last night I drank in total:

1 bottle of wine
3 Sambuca shots
2 little bottles of smirnoff ice

And today I weigh 196lbs. I can lose a pound a day someday as Im still quite heavy.
& yes I know, gross. I feel it. And my phone got stolen.

The question is: should I track my new lower weight or leave it till tommorow to see if it balances out?

    Alcohol dehydrates you. All water weight.

    You're dehydrated. That would be a LOT of alcohol for me, but since I rarely ever drink that doesn't mean much! Leave your weight, drink a lot of water today and eat well, see what happens tomorrow.

    Yeah it isn't a permanent change so you'll just disappoint yourself the next day if you log it and have to change it back upwards. Water weight.
