Last week I bumped up my calories from 1,210 to a little over 1,400 (going from one lb/week to .5 lb/week) Then, I spent the past weekend out of town where I didn't even attempt to track and ate very poorly, but we did spend quite a bit of time walking around the city. I got on the scale just now (I always use the same scale at the same time and day of the week) and I've lost 2.6 pounds from last week! How is this possible? I feel like, if anything, I should have GAINED 2.6 pounds. Anyone have any insight?
